Earthstone reimagines urban excavation by converting discarded soil into a durable composite used for everyday design objects. The material is created through a process of cleaning, drying, and compression that preserves the natural tones and textures of its origins while giving it the strength needed for functional use. Items such as planters, coasters, lamps, and furniture components highlight how waste can be reshaped into long-lasting products.

Each object offers a visible link to its geographic source, allowing users to recognize the material’s character as more than recycled matter. By reducing dependence on virgin resources, lowering waste, and shortening supply chains, Earthstone addresses sustainability without sacrificing form. The system is also designed for modularity and repair, extending product life while reinforcing a circular model. This approach positions Earthstone as both a material and a mindset, where ecological responsibility and design refinement work in unison.
