Print + Publication

Cofilter is an initiative aimed at recycling the waste produced from drinking a cup of coffee to make paper. Waste coffee grounds combined with tissues and newspaper were used to make the sheet.

Since ink and paper go hand in hand, the project also explores the possibility of using coffee as a pigment to screenprint on different substrates, including the coffee paper. The technique is documented further in the form of a small publication.

PACKAGING+IDENTITY

Packaging created for Rangoli- coloured sand that adorns the floor of many Indian households. The promotional packaging aims at celebrating the native tradition of making Rangoli while aiming at minimizing the use of single-use plastics that are currently used in the sale of rangoli powder.

Prototype to test the mechanism of the box. The interior boxes were chosen to be made out of a transparent material in order to reveal the coloured sand upon being opened. The net of the box is based on a simple hexagonal box with slight amendments to the lid of the box.
