What comes after Concrete Curtains (huh?) and Inflatable Houses (huh?). German designer Alexa Lixfeld shows us with Creacrete.

Creacrete is a concrete based material which is highly dense making it possible to create filigree and thin-walled objects out of concrete. Unlike usual ceramics, Alexa uses the novel aesthetics of Creacrete for the design of tableware. Special processing makes it possible to achieve this glossy surface which is new to concrete. A nano-scale coating makes the cups and plates hydrophobic and food safe.

Last year, Creacrete has been recognized with the iF concept award - reason enough for Alexa to continue her concrete explorations. Let's hope we'll be the first to know if she updates her tableware with "concrete cutlery?"
