Once Again Presents OA1 is the debut product from a new furniture brand committed to working exclusively with recycled materials. OA1 is a sofa constructed almost entirely from waste — its frame made from discarded plastic, padding from recycled textiles, and upholstery woven from ocean-bound plastic.
Alongside the finished sofa, the exhibition lays out its internal components and original source materials, tracing the transition from waste to furniture. By making this process visible, Once Again explores how discarded materials can be repurposed at scale.
OA1 is the first step in a new approach to commercial furniture — one in which the use of waste is foundational rather than an afterthought.
