I Started experimenting with curved surface shapes from plastic bottles, which ultimately resulted in his elegant fork and spoon Flat Salad set design. The design has been picked up by Milan-based disposable/sustainable cutlery and table accessories company Pandora Design, presented in their new collection during the Milain Fair.
This project came out after a workshop under direction of the Campana Brothers, who guided me during the research process, the first approach to was to use empty plastic bottles and container to create new products, so at the beginning I was looking for shapes that existed already in the bottles trying to smartly cut them out, then using the flat parts of the containers I figured a simple way to fold the plastic sheet to obtain a curved and strong structured shape, yet ergonomic.
The constraints recycling disposable materials can ultimately end up in simple projects like this one.
