TerraSculpt: Shaping Sustainable Comfort embodies the convergence of innovation and sustainability within chair design. We aim to overhaul conventional chair materials by introducing biocomposites sourced from discarded wastes. We present a distinctive methodology by amalgamating four distinct materials, including seashell, soil, and sand, to formulate customisable layers that conform to our design ethos, environmental analysis findings, texture preferences, strength criteria, and targeted bio-receptivity for seamless integration with urban greenery. Our materials are derived from abandoned wastes and underscore our commitment to sustainability and biodegradability. Could bio-design herald the future of harmonising furniture design with nature?
