UPCYCLING TENNIS BALLS 🎾
300 million tennis balls end up in landfills every single year. Brussels-based designer Mathilde Wittock is doing something about it.
This is one of our favourite upcycling projects we’ve seen in person!
We stopped by her studio here in Brussels to see it up close. She collects discarded balls, dyes them with non-toxic colours, and interlocks them, no glue, no adhesives, into acoustic panels, furniture and wall art that can be fully taken apart and rebuilt into something new.
With events like Wimbledon using 55,000 balls alone, solutions like this aren’t just clever - they’re necessary 🙌
