Through an innovative process of collecting, shredding, melting, and reshaping plastic waste, discarded materials are reborn as terrazzo and marble-like surfaces, transformed into functional and beautiful countertops, tables, wall panels, and home goods. This inspiring showcase encourages viewers to reimagine plastic waste and embrace a circular economy, advocating for sustainable art, design, and daily life practices. https://designdeclassified.com/
