Old Varieties-Newly Discovered

An educational sales and information system

Crosnes, cardoon or atriplex? These are old vegetable varieties that, in contrast to today's supermarket vegetables, still convinced with an authentic taste. In the last 100 years, 75% of our crops have been disappeared in Europe. My work aims to make this unique diversity tangible again. Therefore, I developed a modular sales and information system whose display, made of a stable cardboard honeycomb panel, can be equipped with seed packets and booklets, among other things, and is thus intended to educate people about the relevance of biodiversity in a sustainable ecosystem.
