Eating seasonal and local food, along with recycling, makes a huge difference on many fronts. Teaching these values to our children creates a sustainable future. abbondante pursues this goal as an experiential project, raising awareness of the richness of resources in our environment in a child-friendly way.
The Italian RILEGNO competition "ri-forma" asked students and professional designers to redesign wooden crates for fruits and vegetables and to transform them into new products by adding new values and functions.
abbondante transforms the wooden fruit box into a fun activity for children. Prepared by parents or educators, the box is played with clues and symbols, challenging the children to unravel the mystery of its journey by discovering its purpose and its origin.
The final adventure is the transformation into a planting kit that allows the box to continue it’s role in the food cycle.
