What would happen if we used 20% less materials and energy to make products? On the one year anniversary of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami, Muji presents a display at the Design Museum that reconsiders the way we look at what makes good product design.
The natural disaster and the ongoing concern about damaged power plants in Japan, has prompted Muji to rethink the way in which design impacts on the way we use energy.
The products in the exhibition all address the question, what would happen if we used 20% less materials and energy in the actual process of making products?
And in terms of the final object, what is then the role of the user in customising, re-using and recycling products in order to reduce energy consumption?

Spanish studio Langarita-Navarro Arquitectos filled a Madrid warehouse with makeshift huts and a wilderness of plants to accommodate a nomadic music academy organised by drinks brand Red Bull.
The temporary habitat was installed in the autumn to provide individual music studios for the use of 60 artists, as well as staff offices, a lounge and lecture hall and a recording studio.
