Textile designer Elaine Yan Ling Ng has created a collection of speckled wall tiles made from shells of eggs discarded by bakeries.
Called CArrelé, the collection's name is a fusion of "carreler," which means "to tile" or "to pave" in French, and CA – the chemical symbol for calcium in reference to the calcium carbonate that makes up an eggshell.
Decaying eggshells produce odours, attract flies and contribute to methane emissions, which are reduced if the waste is reused before it rots.

Elaine Yan Ling Ng became interested in the opportunities of eggshells as a material after finding out about experiments in using them for capping teeth and healing bones.
