The incessant trend to throw away rather than to repair, demolish
rather than refurbish has been a topic of discussion and criticism
for years-at the same time, resource consumption and the waste
continue to increase. To counteract this trend, students at the
University of Applied Sciences in Munich and ETH Zurich have been
developing sustainable and imaginative concepts for repairing a
wide variety of objects, applying them both manually and by using
digital techniques such as 3D printing. Beyond restoration, many
projects aim to further develop and improve the repaired objects
constructively, materially, or even in terms of design, lending
them new value. This publication presents a wide variety of
approaches and projects, complemented by essays by notable
personalities from the fields of architecture, preservation,
materials science, design, manufacturing, and craftsmanship.
