Brushed stainless steel and Slate-ish.
Matteo Fogale and Laetitia de Allegri joined forces for -ISH, exploring the perception of materials and their properties in the production of this collection of furniture and products emphasising the illusion and beauty of stone-like materials entirely made from recycled and reclaimed post-industrial waste. This new collaboration expresses the common interest in sustainable sources and new aesthetics on design through a partnership with Slate-ish, material made in the USA from recycled paper-laminate and Iris Industries, specialising in sustainable composites using bio-based components blended with materials like denim and cotton waste.
Iris Industries specialises in the development and commercialisation of sustainable composites using bio-based components blended with recycled and reclaimed materials. ‘Slate-ish’ is a material that resembles stone, but is made in the USA from recycled and reclaimed sources of paper-laminate. ‘Denimite’ is made from post-consumer and post-industrial denim scrap. Every piece is unique, this a cotton fibre bio-composite that is highly moldable, lightweight and tough, with no off-gassing of toxic chemicals. ‘Marblus’ is made from white cotton/polyester post-industrial scrap. This fabric is used for sheets, clothing, and various other fabric products. The combination of fabrics give a wonderful blue/grey tone mixed with white, looking much like Carrara Marble.
