If you’re a sports fan you could soon be watching the action from ‘Sea Chairs’, which have been dreamed up by architect Meis as the world’s sports seat-
ing made entirely from recycled plastics. As well as sourcing scrap from beaches and other litter hotspots, Meis includes 10% of ocean plastics in each
chair. ‘Design should express raw beauty,’ says company founder Dan Meis. He argues that recycled content can make a big difference in the world of
sports. ‘Due to the strenuous wear and tear that these seats endure, they are often replaced multiple times in the life of the venue, creating thousands of
tonnes of physical waste.’
