The Value of Origin
You know where it came from
| The materials for today’s products come from all across the globe, yet their origin often remains unknown. I have designed a formula where the quantity of a material used in a product is relative to the distance from its origin to the producer. The further away the origin, the smaller the piece. This creates a transparent product where the consumer is able to grasp the distances materials have travelled. And it creates a more responsible production method, where the producer sources more locally while still being able to use materials from all over the globe, but in smaller quantities. |
