Salt was once rare and costly; since the industrial revolution it has become so cheap and easily available that its value goes unrecognized. With Marbled Salts, Roxane Lahidji explores new possibilities, reinventing salt as a sustainable design material for a set of tables and stools.
The work uses salt’s properties as a self-binding composite. Mixed with tree resin, it gains shape and strength, while coal powder and the natural color variations of the salt mimic expensive natural stone such as marble — a contradictory parallel between salt’s versatility and the language of heavy, solid rock.
