Partial transcription of the video
“In this lesson, we will talk about an open construction process. and how that is different to a closed construction process. We will talk about leftovers from the construction site. and how those can be part of the creative process. Basically in this unit, we are talking about the restaurant mode de movimiento.

A course by Lucas Muñoz
Lucas Muñoz is an independent designer based both in Madrid, Spain, and Eindhoven, in the Netherlands. As a young student in product design, Lucas Muñoz realized that he didn’t want to design the objects he was taught to make. Instead, he began using the unwanted materials around him to transform them into new objects, which led to the launch of his studio Enpieza! in Madrid with a few friends from university. Before upcycling and green design became popular, Lucas and his friends were manufacturing with these ideas in mind, understanding objects from their materiality.
They then opened Guahouse, where every element was either recycled, donated, or handmade, and kept creating and exploring ways to conceptualize objects. Lucas then studied Contextual Design, where he further explored the notion of an object, its materiality, and its function. His quest for finding a deeper meaning in creating these types of objects is incessant. He works with galleries like Temporal and OGgetto and has received awards from AD Spain’s AD100 best Interior designers of the year in 2021, FRAME magazine’s 2020 Interior of the month award for his project: MO de Movimiento, and more.
