In nature there is no such things as waste, everything that is produced serves to develop others organism.
'' What if we start to look around us and reconsider what we consider waste. "
Experimenting with oyster shells
Understand the material and his characteristics.

Experimenting with different proportions.
Part 1 : Testing
Refining the material properties, strength, colours and proportions.
Adding of natural pigments.
Designing the moulds for 3D printing
Thinking about the molding constraints and piece reduction after water as evaporated.
Part 2 : Making the final piece
