flat salad set – 2006
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.
