The Mater Ocean Collection is a newly designed series of furniture pieces that aim to offer consumers an eco-chic way to outfit their outdoor living space with essential items for relaxation. The furniture collection includes the Ocean Chair, which is crafted from a mix of 960 grams of ocean plastic along with a metal frame as well as two tables. The components have all been expertly finished to make them appear as chic designer furniture pieces that are made from high end materials as a way to help normalize the use of the unlikely material for new consumer products.
The Mater Ocean Collection was created in collaboration with Dennie Ditzel and also features a competitive price point to increase accessibility.
