Recalling a coastal setting while being part of its overall health. The Ocean Outdoor Lounge Table from Mater is a relaxed modern design, underscored by its innovative ocean-cleaning material. Designed by Nanna Ditzel, the piece illustrates the Danish icon’s emphasis on refined visuals. Ditzel’s love for materials exploration complements Mater’s environmentally-friendly ethos. Here, the iconic Ditzel slatted composition is crafted from recycled plastic made from discarded fishing nets, trawls, ropes, and other products. The slats stand up to the elements outdoors and can take some spills thanks to their separated composition. A steel frame sits the piece low for easy access while in the lounging position.
