Let’s Shop…

…Frederic Perers and Jordi Tamayo have invited us to their new Multiplastic space in Barcelona…

…notice the cool industrial character of the original space…the lighting creates an atmosphere that updates the presence of the company’s corporate blue…well done, yes?

Multiplastic carefully selects items sold from a design concept that equates aesthetics and functionality, and that values innovation above all.

…look what I found…

Dutch designer Pepe Heykoop has created a paper cover to turn any glass jar or bottle into a faceted vase, sold to help impoverished women in Mumbai make a living.

Each Paper Vase is handmade by the women of the Pardeshi community in Mumbai’s red light district. The workshop was founded by Pepe Heykoop and the Tiny Miracles Foundation, which was set up by his cousin. “The ultimate goal is to pull this 700-person community out of poverty by providing healthcare, education and jobs within eight years.”
