The Seacrete Stool is a unique, sustainable design made using a Low-Tech casting technique. It is produced with, oysters and mussels or a mix of shells and seaweed, using natural materials sourced directly from the local beach. The embedded shells create natural fossil-like formations in the object, inspired by fossilized limestone, with unique textures and colors that are both visible and tangible. Not only is the stool aesthetically pleasing, but it can also decompose back into the material cycle it came from, gradually transforming into a habitat for sea life. As it slowly breaks down, it enriches the environment with nutrients, reinforcing its deep connection to nature.
