ving a new life to objects was the point of this short project made in collaboration with De Kringwinkel, a company with more than 100 hip second hand shops in Flanders, Belgium. During the visit of the company’s store at Antwerp, the brief was revealed: “recollect two or three different type of objects from the companies store and reuse them in creative way (separately or combined) giving them new use”. Talking with the responsible of the store I realised that they have a big amount of old baskets they can’t sell and which occupy a lot of space. Since that, all that baskets became my priority to reuse.
