This gorgeous table is a stunning example of natural, sustainable design at its best. Made by the Brazilian independent artist Domingos Totora, the Agua Table is just one example of his gorgeous, yet functional sustainable designs.
Amazingly, those giant rocks supporting the table are actually made from recycled kraft paper and natural pigment. As with all of his creations, the material is completely sustainable, the design completely organic.
Totora works from his studio in Brazil, where he embraces sustainable design in all of his works. From kraft paper furniture to sculptural vases , he attempts to preserve the natural beauty and elements of Brazil.
You can see more of his work on his website, which is unfortunately written in Portuguese, or at Touch, where they sell a number of gorgeous, sustainable designs from emerging artists around the world.
