The Earth Stool is a circular bar stool designed by Danish architect Eva Harlou. It represents classic Scandinavian design with steel frames that make the bar stool elegant and timeless.
This stool is also the result of a new innovative waste-to-value technique that enables Mater to reuse companiesâ industrial waste, e.g. plastic waste and other fibre-based materials. The seats are made from insulin pens in collaboration with Novo Nordisk and coffee bean shells from BKI coffee or waste from Carlsbergâs beer production â the spent grain â mixed with post-industrial plastic waste. The technique is developed in collaboration with Danish Technological Institute with support from the University of Copenhagen. The waste materials are mixed in a unique compound suitable for press moulding â a method designed to reuse companiesâ resources more efficiently.Â
The new ground-breaking production technique allows Mater to reuse waste materials and turn it into useful and unique design solutions. Created to support a circular design thinking and the UN SDGs: âResponsible Consumption and Productionâ (SDGs 12), âClimate Actionâ (SDGs 13) and âPartnership for the Goalsâ (SDGs 17).
