Electronics accessory brand [Casetify](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/recasetify) launches a series of public art installations in five cities which is joining the brand's Journey to Re/Birth campaign for this year's Earth Month initiatives. The installations will take place in the US, Australia, Thialand, China, and South Korea. It uses [recycled phone cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collection-of-cases) as the main material for the art designs which have been collected by the brand's [RE/Casetify upcycling program](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crafting-plastic).

Design studio Wade and Leta kick it off with a table and stool which is on display at the Devoción Cafe in Brooklyn. Casetify explains, "All of these are part of the brand's ongoing efforts to make sure the end of any phone case is the beginning of a new one in all possible ways." The studio continues, "We characterise the creation of the texture on the pieces as a water-based plaster with granulated plastic case pieces mixed in."
