Plastic bottles are a product that is difficult to give up. It goes without saying that it harms the environment, but it is really not easy to stop using them completely. Therefore, everyone has come up with various ways to solve this thorny problem. Some people use waste materials to turn them into plastic ropes. Some people think of using biodegradable seaweed to replace plastic materials. Micaella Pedros completely "softens" this serious issue. "!
Micaella Pedros, a designer currently living in London, picked up discarded plastic bottles that everyone threw away in the streets, and put them on the joints of wood, and then heated them, leaving only the hard plastic , slowly melted into a mochi shape, and tightly fixed the legs of the table or chair. Unexpectedly, a solid piece of furniture could be completed without any nails.
"In life, it is not difficult to find discarded wood and plastic bottles, quietly crowded in corners, waiting for the moment of resource recycling. This Joining Bottles project hopes to give individuals and society a chance to rethink the value of items opportunity." Pedros describes her creative philosophy.
Of course, this plan is not just "green". All kinds of plastic bottles can be added to the sticky TT ranks. Just cut, wrap and heat, and with a few simple procedures, you can DIY a unique table The chair is there~ I hope that Pedros can make more types of furniture based on this method in the future. You might as well try the magic of plastic turning into glue in front of the screen!
