RECYCLED FIBRES
The ‘Pica Pica’ bag is made from recycled fibres. It is a sustainable and innovative product that through design, demonstrates how we can reuse materials to make new products.
Often, we believe that recycled items cannot look attractive. This could be because most things we know to be recycled include plastic shopping bags or sheets of paper. What I aim to create is a way of making and using recycled materials a part of everyday life. I look to transform wasted fibres into valuable objects whether they’re for your home, office, or like in this case, a fashionable item to finish off your look.
I am currently working on creating a line of pillows made from recycled fabric. The aim is to be able to have decorative items in our home made from recycled materials that also provide a touch of class and style wherever they are placed. I want to be able to create a collection of stylish items that can not only be used in our everyday lives, but that are also allowing us to help the planet; by using materials that would have otherwise been considered as rubbish and can now be seen as functional, attractive items.
OBJETOS CREADOS CON FIBRAS RECICLADAS
La Pica Pica, es una bolsa hecha de fibras recicladas, es un producto sustentable e innovador que busca a través del diseño demostrar que podemos rehusar materiales para crear nuevos objetos.
Muchas veces pensamos que lo reciclado no es bonito porque la mayoría de cosas que vemos que se reciclan actualmente y venden son bolsas de súper, lo que quiero es que le demos la oportunidad a los materiales reciclados de ser parte de nuestra vida cotidiana. Lo que busco es transformar residuos de fibras en objetos de valor, ya sea objetos de diseño para el hogar, para nuestras oficinas, e incluso como en este caso para nuestro look del día.
Actualmente estoy trabajando en una línea de cojines con tela reciclada, el objetivo es utilizar elementos decorativos en el hogar que sean reciclados y que al mismo tiempo le den un toque de elegancia y diseño al ambiente donde estén colocados. Quiero poder crear una colección de objetos que sean de buen gusto para que se puedan usar en nuestra vida cotidiana y que al mismo tiempo estemos ayudando al planeta a utilizar materiales que se creían basura pero que se pueden transformar en objetos funcionales y bonitos.
