CCC project. Champignon Carbone Capture.
Development in progress.
Grand Prix de la Ville de Paris 2009.

These new outdoor seating designs take the concept of “green” furniture a step further. Entitled CCC (for Champignon Carbone Capture) they are series of urban seating / sculptures made from TX Active cement. TX Active has a photocatalyser that speeds up the natural oxidation process of polluants in the presence of natural or artificial light, making it more environmentally-friendly by transforming them into less harmful compounds such as water, nitrates, or carbon dioxide. Freeform design is inspired by nature and may be interpreted as a large stone, tree trunk or log for sitting, refecting or simply breathing the fresh air.
