Drawing attention to the fact that we often generate waste before our day even begins, this biodegradable container is part of a series inspired by the artist’s childhood memories of watching her father sip Arabic coffee while reading the newspaper.

After coffee ground waste is collected from local coffee shops, it is mixed with newspaper pulp and a natural binding agent. The mixture is delicately molded by hand, with the final colour and scent of each item determined by the various types of coffee used.

Dimensions: length 30 x width 7.5 x depth 5 cm
Material: coffee ground and newspaper pulp
Year of design: 2014
Country of design: Beirut
Weight: 89 g
