Uncomfortable

About this material

‘Uncomfortable’ is a material research that ended up into an organic looking 3D structure made of plastic waste. Originally produced in filaments, it can be reshaped in any forms and be connected together to create panels, surfaces and 3D objects. The aim is to translate the uncomfortableness of the plastic waste into an object, hence the name of the material.
