◄ Overview
Erez Nevi Pana
Wasted (II)
Nearly every designer working today is well aware of impending climate change. Very few are responding in a way commensurate with the scale of the crisis. For Erez Nevi Pana, the most important question for designers today (perhaps the only truly important question) is how to produce objects that are truly sustainable, a principle that has guided all his efforts. This basket exemplifies his approach: Nevi Pana used his own personal trash as an armature for the construction of bamboo baskets. The dark “glaze” is also a waste material, sourced from the Indian cashew nut processing industry.
