"The Plastic Marble Display Shelf is a furniture system developed by DLS World Official in collaboration with WOULD YOU LOVE Seoul. The project explores the potential of industrial waste as a primary design material rather than a secondary substitute. At the core of the system is Plastic Marble, a composite made from recycled industrial byproducts. Each panel displays a distinct marbled pattern, resulting from the specific mix and processing of the reclaimed materials."
"The shelf employs a custom clip-joint system that enables tool-free assembly. Components interlock through a precise connection mechanism, eliminating the need for screws or adhesives. This construction method allows users to assemble, disassemble, and reconfigure the structure easily, supporting both flexibility and long-term material reuse. Functionally, the design operates as an open-ended system. Individual modules can be combined to form small tables, shelving units, or larger storage walls, depending on spatial and practical requirements."
Plastic Marble is a composite material made from recycled industrial byproducts that yields unique marbled panels through varied mixes and processing. Each panel’s variation is treated as a deliberate design quality that provides visual and structural individuality. A custom clip-joint connection enables tool-free assembly, eliminating screws and adhesives and allowing easy assembly, disassembly, and reconfiguration. Individual modules can combine into small tables, shelving units, or large storage walls, making the system scalable and adaptable. The system integrates upcycling into both form and function, advancing circular manufacturing and long-term material reuse through participatory, reconfigurable design.
