Eternity Sidechair, stacked, by Space Copenhagen

The dynamic design duo behind Space Copenhagen, Signe Bindslev Henriksen and Peter Bundgaard Rützou, have introduced their first stacking chair, Eternity Sidechair. The chair's primary inspiration was waste materials.

As the first circular shell chair produced by Mater, the Eternity Sidechair marks a new beginning and endless possibilities for the company. Mater's patented technology means that moulding Mater Circular Material into larger pieces is now possible.

Eternity Sidechair comes in three different variations; without upholstery as a regular shell chair and with upholstery on the seat or the entire front. Also the Eternity Sidechair now comes with upholstery on seat and front.

The upholstery is Re-Wool from Kvadrat, designed by the Danish textile and colour designer, Margrethe Odgaard. Crafted using 45% recycled wool and mixed with 45% new wool and 10% nylon, Re-Wool is a rich upholstery with a sustainable profile. The textile is partly made by reusing scraps from Kvadrat's yarn spinners in the UK.

Reminiscent of colourful stitchings on a darker background, the upholstery creates a dynamic play when put together with the shell's organic structure and tactility.

Mater Circular Material

A circular waste composite material

Eternity Sidechair by Space Copenhagen

After years of research and testing we have invented a patented technology that allows us to mix upcycled fibre-based waste materials with different kinds of plastic waste. The result is an unique mixture that can be applied to an existing technology in our industry: press moulding.

Mater developed this innovative technology for mixing various waste streams to allow them to mould many kinds of furniture. The technique allows efficient upcycling of industrial waste while simultaneously reducing carbon emissions, instead of the waste being burned.

Design for Disassembly

The Eternity Sidechair, Eternity Armchair and the Bowl Table Waste Edition are all designed for disassembly, which means that each component, in its purest form, can be upcycled into new production cycles.

The new composite material is designed to be reprocessed again and again. Anything made with Mater Circular Material can be recycled and made into new furniture
