Make it Compostable



Faster, cheaper and easier has become the mantra of modern man. We live in a throw away society built upon convenience; but now that the long term viability of humanity and the planet has been compromised, the ability to leave no trace behind has become a design selling point.

Creating a new kind of throwaway culture and new value for short term use;  Young Ju Do, a fashion student at Central Saint Martins in London, devised a series of compostable accessories derived from edible, biologically nutritive organic materials. Returned to the soil, the one-time jewelry is cycled back into the food chain when consumed by micro organisms.

So experiment with edible, biologically nutritive and organic materials designing with the intent to leave no trace behind.
