Long before environmentalism became a popular concern, Henrik Marstrand created Mater in 2006, a Danish furniture company that prides itself on timeless design with sustainability at its core. Designing and producing all their own pieces, Marstrand’s new line of outdoor chairs and tables was based on original designs from Nanna and Jørgen Ditzel and is made from recycled fishing nets and ropes. This initiative is helping to offset the five million tonnes of plastic that finds its way into the ocean every year. Marstrand is changing perceptions of good design with a faith in the circular economy and infectious entrepreneurial spirit. |
