Orikaso Folding Dinnerware: Smaller, Better, Lighter
by Lloyd Alter, Toronto

This gives new meaning to the term "flatware"- dishes, cups and bowls designed to travel flat and fold into useable shapes. What a great space saving idea- you can file your dinnerware instead of needing cupboards for it. It was designed with sustainability in mind: "We have reduced our environmental footprint: By designing a reusable packaging sleeve, this keeps your products clean in transit (or dirty if you can't be bothered to wash up); By having all our production under one roof; By recycling all our waste from manufacturing the product at our factory; By using polypropylene (a material recommended by Greenpeace as an alternative to PVC)." Designed with camping in mind but we see a much wider market, it is just so clever. ::Orikaso via ::Coolhunter
