| TitleF | LEAN ON ME the plant support that uses recycled chopsticks to help growing plants | |
| Concept: | The act of growing food starts before the act of eating, a way of restoring ones consciousness of what is involved in eating, by reclaiming responsibility for one's own part in the food cycle. Hundreds and thousands of valuable trees are being cut down to make disposable chopsticks, an eating instrument that is used for only one meal, before being disposed off, My Cradle to Cradle ecologically design concept is a rewarding way to recycle those disposable chopsticks in a meaningful way, a way that allows you to grow your own food and reconnect with what is natural, by reaching out and reflecting on the origins of food and appreciating the natural environment. |
|
| Judge's Comments: | I think the idea of using disposable chopsticks in planter supporters for growing plants is a very good idea as a method of recycling these chopsticks in a meaningful way. I had hoped that the mockup for the final screening entry would show more concrete expression in the planter support variations and suggestion of developed forms. | |
