Muubs
The innovative Danish interior design brand Muubs focuses on producing and showcasing elegant, unique, and sustainable designs made from raw, natural materials. In honour of Scandinavian design’s rustic language, Muubs created Dacarr by Muubs—a series of products crafted from 100% recycled truck, car, and bicycle tyres, giving these materials a completely new and different role in our lives, thereby extending their life cycle. Inspired by Japanese aesthetics, Muubs’ designers are dedicated to genuine craftsmanship, attention to detail, and durable design. They advocate for a minimalistic lifestyle centered around a few high-quality design pieces for the home that embody timeless, functional, and visually appealing design. Finding beauty in imperfection involves accepting and admiring the natural cycle of growth and decay while seeking life’s essential elements, explains a representative for Muubs’ designers, and adds that it is fascinating that items that have lived their lives for one purpose now gain a fundamentally transformed role in our lives.
Muubs’ creations pay tribute to the minimalist appeal of Scandinavian design, recognising that rubber complements this style well as a design material. The Dacarr series exemplifies durable design, suitable for year-round use both indoors and outdoors due to the elastic material’s resistance to frost damage. Dacarr by Muubs is a collection handmade from 100% recycled truck tyres, car tyres, and bicycle tyres. This practical durability, combined with the items’ design and their positive environmental impact, are central to the success of Dacarr by Muubs. The Dacarr series features baskets in various sizes crafted solely from recycled materials, aligning well with the brand’s values of authenticity, soulfulness, and creating a grounded atmosphere in our homes and daily lives. Muubs explains that using discarded tyres as the series’ design material enables end-users to recycle their products at local centres where rubber has a dedicated recycling category. The rubber is granulated and mixed with other materials, ready for repurposing into new products.
