                "description": "Matterpieces is an innovative project for a more efficient debris valorisation by upcycling it into new high-quality cladding materials for the world's architecture and interior design. Matterpieces wants to address essentially inert waste like cement, bricks, ceramics, and glass, representing 90% of demolition and still having a low market value. Giving these materials a second life reduces costs and minimises the environmental impact of this activity, reducing the consumption of natural raw materials and diverting waste away from landfills."
