How it's made
From packaging, bottle caps and damaged fittings to this piece.
A mixed visual language of colour and fleck, sorted into known polymers before it is shredded, pressed and machined.
Read the plastics streamStep 01
Identify and sort
Items are grouped by known polymer and colour. Incompatible pieces are removed.
Step 02
Wash and dry
Residue and labels are removed so moisture and contamination do not compromise the next stage.
Step 03
Shred
Material is reduced to a controlled flake, with colour mixes recorded for repeatable visual recipes.
Step 04
Heat and press
Flakes are mixed with 100% recycled plastic and heated in a press and cooled under pressure into a stable sheet form.
Step 05
Machine and assemble
Parts are cut and joined with reversible fixings where the design allows.
Designed from the sheet
Every part earns its place.
The stool is cut from a single sheet of recovered HDPE, planned before cutting so each part tessellates and we get the most from our waste material. Nothing is drawn to look busy.
The design is modular, too. There is no glue — every joint is bolted, so the piece can be fully disassembled, repaired or reconfigured, and a part that does come off can go straight back into the next batch.
