Ocean plastic upcycled into ocean terrazzo table

London-based industrial designer Brodie Neill has up-cycled ocean plastic to create terrazzo-effect on the Gyro table. The visual effect on the table is similar to terrazzo flooring, which is usually created out of marble or granite materials. However, this furniture piece comprises tiny pieces of plastic salvaged from beaches around the world. The speckled tabletop is made from chips of blue, white, black, brown and green plastic to evoke natural colors of the ocean. The ocean plastic chips are carefully spaced within this mix, giving the composite a terrazzo-like effect. Furthermore, small slabs of the composite are CNC cut and embedded into the table. White dominates all mottled colors at the center, whereas elegant black highlights the edge. Neill will be presenting his stylish Gyro table within the Australian pavilion at the London Design Biennale 2016, which is going to start from September 7th to September 27th at Somerset House.
