At FabBRICK, sustainability is more than a material choice. It is the foundation of a design language built from textile waste. The Paris-based studio has long specialized in transforming discarded fabrics into solid, architectural blocks. With nouvelle pierre, launched during Paris Design Week 2025, founder Clarisse Merlet and her team expand that mission into sculptural furniture.

Each piece is shaped directly from revalorized textiles, compressed into form without dyes or additives. The result is a vivid, layered surface that celebrates imperfection and origin. What once read as waste now presents as material richness, its tone and texture determined entirely by what is reclaimed.

Five new molds were developed for the collection, creating chairs, tables, and shelving that bridge architecture and craft. The work is both experiment and statement: an argument that sustainability can be structural, expressive, and permanent.

For specifiers, nouvelle pierre represents a maturing phase in sustainable material innovation, where circularity meets design intent. It echoes a wider industry shift, seen in projects like Sustainable Sport in Motion, toward materials that regenerate rather than extract.
