The problem.

Every year, 22 million pieces of furniture are discarded in the UK. 1/3 of adults throw away usable furniture due to changing needs.

The product.

Modulab envisions furniture that can change as the user's needs change. Modulab seating is made up of modular building blocks, allowing for maximum flexibility in its form. By pairing the modular design with an aggregation algorithm, Modulab allows the user to create parametrised digital configurations, which can translate into assembly manuals.
