Positive Impact.
Quarrying is a destructive industry to the environment. It has a direct impact on the landscape by leaving tons of waste material, which are not used. We aim to find aesthetic colourful applications for these types of waste streams, as well as by using waste from local ceramic manufacturers.
Alchemy.
In a collaboration with Studio Mixtura, we developed an innovative and unique waste-based glazing. The aim is to further develop this extensive research for large-scale application of the glazes on our sustainable WasteBasedBricks® and WasteBasedSlips®.
Studio Mixtura was founded in 2015 by Daria Biryukova due to a fascination with experimenting with waste and secondary raw materials.
Daria is searching for smart, sustainable and beautiful solutions for everyday life and her glazing has been exhibited at several design expos, including Dutch Design Week, the Tallinn Design Festival and Il Salone Del Mobile Milan.
In partnership with StoneCycling, Studio Mixtura provides the knowledge of an alchemist to further develop the extensive research for large-scale application of the glazes on our sustainable products.
Project WasteBasedGlaze is supported by Stimuleringsfonds Creatieve Industrie, the Dutch culture fund for design, architecture and digital culture.
