Marble Hexagon Tile

Marble hexagon tiles are traditionally cut with waterjets; however, it is an extremely slow and expensive process. After a long research period, R&D department of Ionic Stone has been able to develop a new technique that now enables them to cut rectangle tiles into hexagon and chevron formats with utmost precision in dimensions with a much lower cost. Currently, the company is producing marble hexagon tiles at affordable prices. Thanks to this new technique they have become the world's first mass-producer of innovative formats, such as hexagons, trapezoids and chevrons.

Karst

Karst, a modular staircase designed for Governors Island in New York, is like a solutional cave for people to see and hear the flowing water, with a water filtering system that brings the sensation of nature into the house, connecting the community of humans and water. Each module has a pocket for placing a bag of crushed oyster shells. The shells composed of calcium carbonate can react with acid rain to help neutralize acidified ocean by absorbing carbon dioxide. In the end, it is a filter system that can blur the boundary between humans and nature on Governors Island.
