The Modular Eggshell Archive
Most memories are kept flat - confined to screens or paper. The Waffle Canvas was engineered to give your story depth, weight, and a physical space to reside. This is not a print; it is a structural artifact designed to anchor your memory in the physical world.
For this limited collaboration, we have paired Ichi E’s precise architectural lines with a unique, sustainable canvas crafted from repurposed eggshells.
The Material Story - 84% Bio-Recursive Mineral:
Our Series 01 collection features a groundbreaking biomaterial composed of 84% repurposed eggshells sourced from local restaurants. This is not a fragile shell; it is an engineered mineral canvas with the structural integrity of stone and the delicate aesthetic of fine ceramic.
Structural Strength: Engineered to withstand a compressive strength of 14.5 MPa (148kg), ensuring your archive is built for permanence.
Thermal Resilience: Heat resistant up to 450°C, making it the ideal medium for architectural lighting and interactive shadow play.
Regenerative Lifecycle: 100% compostable and non-toxic. At the end of its lifecycle, the calcium-rich composition returns to the earth as a natural fertilizer—completing a clean, circular loop.
The Structure Story - One Archive, Infinite Forms:
At the core of Waffle Canvas is our signature Interlocking Slot System. This is not a static object; it is a living sculpture.
Precision-milled to rely on pure architectural friction, the panels can be disassembled and reconfigured into multiple forms. Whether as a standalone piece or part of a growing collection, the archive invites you to play with its structure, adapting to your space and the way light moves through your room.
