The Plastic Shell Chair Gets Remade With Hemp + Seaweed

"The idea to use hemp comes from the fact that it's an incredibly beneficial and sustainable crop. It sequesters about 15 tons of CO2 per one hectare of hemp and is environmentally friendly, requiring minimal water and zero pesticides or fertilizers. Hemp grows quickly, allowing it to be harvested frequently.'

Design Milk · The Plastic Shell Chair Gets Remade With Hemp + SeaweedDesigned by Foersom & Hiort-Lorenzen for Normann Copenhagen, the new Mat Chairs exemplify material innovation and circular design.

So much YES. Would love to connect with fellow enthusiasts and professionals working in the field, and engage more actively, bringing in my own expertise of working in high end interiors and architecture. If that's you, please reach out, boost, connect.

We OBVIOUSLY can't 'keep on keeping on' and design our built environment like we don't know how fundamentally flawed our design principles and construction methods are.

Let's embrace new aesthetics and look forward, not back. Bauhaus was relevant at the time, it's history now. Let's move on. Let's question every single choice in the design process and make better decisions. Educate our clients. Throw those outdated concepts overboard of what is aesthetically pleasant, what is deemed high-end.

Nobody will enjoy marbled lobbies, airconditioned greenhouse towers and concrete buildings on a dead planet. The future is now. Let's design and build it together!

New #introduction

Hi! I'm Elaine a.k.a. Lanika, a #brazilian #designer, mother and #cat person. I talk about everything #creative and post a lot of #design content across medias, but also interact with people, talk about #comics, #books, #illustration, #packaging and I'm in love with #sustainable solutions and #circulardesign.

I'm a big nerd and a bit introverted. Always learning new things, always reading something different.

You can talk to me in Portuguese, English and French!
