"Wade is a table made entirely from trash. The hand sculpted legs are a turquoise plastic that once was bottle containers. The marble plate is dumpster-dived in a residential building in Copenhagen, with the help from my ever supporting janitor Wade" Atelier Tonni 2022
Philosophy:
Our main inspiration, our love, is plastic trash.
As a discarded material, it is not worth much for most people, but it is for us! ... Someone, it is also worth a lot to, is the earth - because a lot of resources are taken out of it to make the plastic.
Our goal is to make people appreciate the value in plastic trash by treating it with care and putting lots of time into each piece we make.
We think it is simple; Plastic should not be burned, shipped off to another country, or end up in a landfill, but right now that is the fate for as much as 87% of Danish plastic trash. Let’s change that.
The beginning:
During her thesis at The Royal Academy, Simone looked into the wast amounts of trash created in renovations of retail stores. Originally she set out to recycle as much of the construction as possible. But her focus soon landed on plastic because it was always burned.
Her work and investigations led to discovering that the main hurdle for recycling plastic in Denmark was labor salaries and operation costs, which made it hard to compete with the recycled plastic processed in the global south. She set out to develop a technique that will give the plastic a monetary value, and make it ‘worth’ recycling.
In the end, she presented her work at her exam and didn’t look at it again. She went on to work in the architecture field and briefly in scenography. before she realized she was miserable, not working sustainably. She left her jobs behind, bought a plastic melting machine, found a damp basement to house it in, and started melting plastic trash.
