Reverse valuation ? Or should it be called ?


Oh well... just wrote about skin being used for everyday items when I found this - leather bags resembling the appearance of cheap plastic bags (by 'cast of voices' A&R store). The 'luxury-fication' of trash so to speak or rather the re-interpretation of items we are not conscious of. Came across quite few samples of such design approach lately with table ware being inspired by styrofoam lunch boxes, vases looking like crumbled paper (which is older) and lighting products assembled from DIY piping. Turning anonymous by-products of our consumerism into hero products and this give them a new meaning. (AJ)
