Towel With Further Options by Japanese designers NIIMI is designed to be recycled as a bath-mat and a cleaning cloth as it wears out.
The concept, by Takuya and Yuki Niimi, references the Japanese tradition of cutting up old yukata (traditional Japanese bathing clothes) to make nappies or floor cloths.
The aim is to extend the useful life of the towelling once the fabric has become old and worn.
The grid-like pattern woven into the towelling acts as a marker for cutting square modules, helping the consumer to imagine future uses.
The design fits easily into the usual production process for towels, where a washcloth is made from a larger piece of towelling by dividing it into squares.
