'Kopano' Ottoman Range Südafrika

Second chance for plastic bags

Kopano is an ongoing furniture range aimed at sustaining traditional African weaving techniques by superimposing them into a functional, eco-friendly context. We realized how many plastic bags the majority of South Africans store away "for further use" in their homes. But they never come back to use these bags due to always being offered plastic bags whenever they shop. So we began collecting unused plastic bags door-to-door around our local neighborhood in order to prototype eco-friendly designs.
