The project Offcut Puzzle is made collaboration with SolidNature. Together we transformed their factory offcuts into new patterns applicable in interior project as flooring, a mural, or furniture pieces. "Inspired by the intrinsic beauty of natural stone, Marte Mei developed a technique to scan and rework broken fragments into new, seamless patterns. The collection presented at Matter & Shape reflects this meticulous approach, combining earthy, serene tones with dynamic, colourful accents—bringing together SolidNature’s expertise in natural stone and Marte Mei’s artistic sensibility. The collection includes modular surface designs for walls and floors, as well as furniture pieces that highlight the raw beauty of repurposed materials. Among the featured pieces are a bench and coffee table, crafted from individually shaped stone fragments supported by solid oak frames, embracing imperfections as part of their aesthetic as well as the Mark Lamp, a reinterpretation of Marte Mei’s original porcelain design in SolidNature’s translucent onyx, showcasing the stone’s light-diffusing qualities."
