Coffee Chandelier?


NEW YORK– As with the Milan Furniture Fair and other trendy design fairs worldwide green and recycled design is high on the menu. Designers are realizing that food packaging has considerable carbon footprint and are fashioning their own solutions. And this year’s New York Design Week was no different.

Witness Portuguese design group Studio Veríssimo debut of this beautifully clever eco-chandelier that gives a ray of hope for discarded plastic coffee sticks.

It created quite a stir at NYDW.

YUM!
