Upcycled Plastic Looks Like Swirling Marble in This Modular Shelf - Yanko Design
"The secret is plastic marble, an upcycled material with swirling, marble-like patterns and a glossy, watery finish that catches light beautifully throughout the day. Each panel is visually unique, with colors and translucency that play with ambient and natural light to create a sculptural presence in any room. Unlike printed laminates or vinyl wraps, the marble effect is a natural result of the upcycling process itself."
"The material gives the shelf a premium look while keeping it lightweight and genuinely eco-friendly throughout its lifecycle from production to disposal. The translucent quality and depth add visual interest that changes depending on viewing angle and lighting conditions throughout the day. What would otherwise be industrial waste becomes something you'll actually want to display prominently in living rooms, bedrooms, or creative studios."
The Plastic Marble Display Shelf, designed by Lim Sungmook with Julia and Adi of WOULD YOU LOVE Seoul, uses upcycled Tyvek byproducts to create panels with swirling, marble-like patterns and a glossy, watery finish. Each panel is visually unique, offering colors and translucency that interact with ambient and natural light to produce sculptural depth and changing visual interest throughout the day. The material delivers a premium appearance while remaining lightweight and eco-friendly across production and disposal. A concise clip joint system enables tool-free assembly, disassembly, and rapid reconfiguration. The modular units can be stacked and rearranged to suit living rooms, bedrooms, or creative studios.
