Project Description

A simple-to-manufacture, meaningful, and aesthetically pleasing design solution to help combat ghost fishing and ocean waste

More than 650,000 marine animals die each year from ghost fishing.

WWF calls ghost gear “the deadliest marine plastic,” trapping wildlife and causing slow, painful deaths.

To tackle this problem, I decided to design something that would cultivate life, made from the very waste that takes it.

Amsterdam-based Reflow turns recycled fishing nets into 3D printing filament, providing the material to bring this idea to life.
