Porcelain Cupboard
Dutch designer Marjan van Aubel has developed foam porcelain, a new lightweight material. Just like bread, the foam literally rises in the kiln, expanding itself about 300% its original volume. Extremely light weight because only a third of the material is needed, its open-structure also makes it incredibly strong. Through the production process there is an experimental boundary between controlling the material while also letting it behave freely.
