If you have a designated chair for draping your clothes over because they’re not quite dirty enough to wash, you’re not alone. Now, London’s Uncommon Creative Studio and eco-cleaning brand Ecover have transformed this universal and deep-seated habit into an eco-friendly design statement with the creation of the Rewear Chair. This quirky piece of furniture is crafted to encourage more mindful laundry practices, making it easier to air out clothes instead of tossing them in the wash unnecessarily.
The whimsical take on “The Chair,” as it’s often called by the collective, features nine adjustable vertical bars that are made for hanging garments, offering a playful yet practical way to keep clothes fresh for another wear—and saving you a seat to boot. By promoting the habit of re-wearing clothes rather than overwashing, the chair aims to reduce the environmental impact of laundry, one load at a time.
Constructed from 100% sustainable materials like wind-felled cedar and reclaimed ash, the Rewear Chair—set to be showcased at Dutch Design Week—is a subtle reminder that small changes in our daily routines, like cutting down on unnecessary laundry, can make a significant difference.
