The processes that Brodie Neill follows are very environmentally friendly, the way that Neill approaches being self-conscious in his design in regards to the environment, is inspirational. Neill’s Gyro table that he presented in the 2017 “inaugural Luunfon Design Biennale at Somerset House” (Neil, 2019), was created by collecting plastic waste from the ocean and then Neill created his own materials from the plastic waste using it in his table. This level of involvement that Neil has in the creation of his designs is the type of process that I want to have in my creation. Being able to collect and refine my own materials and process them creates a more personal connection with the piece and is also apart of a process that Neil has by being there in person making the object allows to see any problems that arise from making the object.
