Circular Logic In his Vancouver studio, furniture maker Jeff Martin elevates production methods to high art, repurposing the material remnants, moulds and casts used for his custom furniture to create new pieces like his vibrant glassware collection, Excavated Vessels. “We recycle as much cast-off material as possible in order to extract the most use and beauty from it,” says Jeff.
