Sashimono: Sashimono is a bed system that promotes circularity and product longevity.
Sashimono is not just a bed; it’s a solution promoting circularity and longevity. Through extensive research and interviews, it was discovered that children’s beds are frequently replaced in family households. Thus, a bed system that evolves with a child from crib to double XL bed was designed, following infancy to independence. Sashimono utilizes a website platform where extension parts and interchangeable panels can be customized via a 3D product configurator tool. It can last generations through a repairability service. Additionally, a discounted take-back program ensures no material ends up in landfills, while a carbon calculator tracks your reduced carbon footprint with each transition.
