Sandmade

for Baume et Mercier X MAMF

2021


Even the most abundant-seeming of earthly materials, like coastal sand, are becoming scarce. How will we valorize resources differently in the making of luxury goods?

Here I proposed using an imperfect & antiquated technique to create a sand cast watch for Baume et Mercier, a luxury watch brand hoping to tell a story about the sustainability of its product.
