Fruitree by Evan Orensten
Fruitree is a concept piece designed by Chia Shee Loh, Antonietta Fortunato and Elena Godenzi. They were motivated to solve the out of sight, out of mind problem with fruit that goes uneaten and spoils. The fact that fruit grows on trees does not go unnoticed in this design, where the results are both decorative and literal. Circulating air is pushed throughout the Fruitree, keeping the fruit fresh longer.

Fresh Snack Packs
by Laura Neilson As the fervent war against plastic wages on, Fresh Snack Pack reusable sandwich and snack bags are a clever and eco-friendly alternative to the disposable kind. Made from PVC-free, non-toxic plastic, the Packs come in two sizes (sandwich and snack). They feature an easy-to-open velcro closure and, because economizing doesn't necessarily mean eating PB and J sandwiches every single day, these handy...
