FRRUUU! Like the air that passes through
your hair, like the sound of a light fabric in the wind! A chic accessory, technological, for everyday needs, but still full of nostalgia
and romanticism!
A project
created in collaboration with two
brilliant students of La Nuova
Accademia di Belle Arti
Sara Ricciardi e Jacopo Sterlocchi for “Un
designer per le imprese”, edition 2011.The trolley won a special price assigned
by the jury for ambiental ecosustainability during the opening of the event.
A shopping trolley with aluminum folding
structure, innovative, space-saving
and ultra-light and resistant fabric -
recycled as always - from hot air balloons that makes us dream.
The fabric of the balloon, a material (although very technological nowadays)
which transmits great nostalgia for the times when we peacefully contemplated
the earth from above without any interference or noise. "I discovered
this ancient way of traveling last spring," says Carmen Bjornald, founder
and designer of the brand Ceebee,
"I enjoyed a balloon flight with my mother who has
always dreamed of making this experience and I got emotional too!"The fabric is embellished with a permanent plissé, an ancient method which creates unexpected textures and surprising volumes. A folding aluminum
frame to carry on your shoulders
like a bag and to
open on the way back home from
the supermarket to give space for your groceries.
All ‘One of a kind’ – as always - adorned by label with identity
and origin of the aircraft,
flight hours carried out and information about the area in which it was used. This project is a 0km realization by employing exclusively companies and workmanship from Lombardia.
The prototype
of FRRUU is visible at Triennale di Milano, the famous Milanese museum of
design, in the hall of Material Connexion until al 10th of January.
A special thanks to Milano
Mongolfiere who kindly donated the fabric.
