The New Raw has created Glyph, a collection of sustainable children's furniture.

The New Raw collaborated with local school children to design Glyph – a vibrant new collection of sustainable play-furniture for Eleusis 2023 European Capital of Culture.

The name of the collection, which comes from the Greek word 'γλυφή' (carving), refers to ornamental engravings of messages or symbols on ancient temples.

The project is the result of an eight-week laboratory hosted in the Greek city, inviting more than 700 children aged 5-14 from the region to donate their plastic waste material and create drawings – later scanned, digitally processed and engraved on the new furniture of the city.

This project has been longlisted in the sustainable design (consumer) category of Dezeen Awards 2023.
