Abstract by Openfabric

Abstract is a terrazzo concrete that unites the precious and the mundane.
The white concrete mixture contains fragments of several types of marble, as in the best tradition of this flooring, historically considered elegant and refined. Such minerals are combined with scraps of different nature. Brass bars and glass fragments add reflective power and transparency, making Abstract a reused material that combines everyday objects with precious stones.
This material can be seen as an urban fossil, where each fragment has specific characteristics, different geographical origins and a story to tell.
Abstract becomes a mineral anthology, where each piece witnesses an equally important point of view: from marble to broken glasses.
