About LOOPTY

 

Purpose

​

Loopty is the modular urban furniture system developed within the framework of Street Forum. Based on a zero-waste approach, the system transforms recycled plastic into a flexible building material, allowing participants to collectively assemble different types of public space elements.

 

Rather than focusing on complex fabrication processes, Loopty is designed to be accessible, collaborative, and hands-on: participants work with pre-prepared modules and create furniture together through simple assembly techniques. In this way, production becomes a shared experience, and public space becomes a site of collective making.

 

As part of the open call, we aim to expand the participation of young designers, students, and city residents, especially in the forum sessions. The first day will be structured as a more public and inclusive platform, encouraging a wider group of participants to contribute ideas, share perspectives, and take part in shaping the design process.

 

Through Loopty, Street Forum brings together urban commons, tactical urbanism, and zero-waste practices, creating a temporary yet impactful transformation of public space in Ankara.
