An Upcycled Food Experience in the Meat Packing District

EAT WASTED aims to create a unique spatial experience centered on upcycled food products, bridging the gaps between production, consumption, and digestion. The vision goes beyond satisfying the basic need for food, embracing the broader impacts of food on our bodies, communities, and everyday rituals. By fostering open dialogues, the project seeks to challenge and redefine conventional perspectives on food waste and sustainable practices.

The project envisions a multifunctional space featuring a food production facility for pasta made from bread waste, integrated with an inclusive and adaptable dining area. This space invites community engagement through a diverse program of activities, including soup kitchens, educational workshops, restaurant collaborations, and catering services. Located in the Copenhagen Meat Packing District, the project respects the industrial heritage of the site, revitalizing its original food production aesthetics with an innovative approach that reimagines consumption and digestion processes.
