COUNT ON YOU

The essence of this project is based on the beads that were used in our Culture Canaria by aboriginal people; the “string of beads” hence the first part that defines the project, “account”

Technique in a traditional craft and culturar, a knowing that I wanted to reflect both the execution of the same, 100% hand-and as in material, 100% of the Canary islands. So each piece is done manually, each unique in its essence and with a historical content, both in the idea, as in the execution of the same .And so, to keep the living identity of our People of the Canary islands, a new product.

The project itself features a touch of design, in any of its forms, in order to adapt the past to the present,in today's homes, both for the island as possible export.

All the pieces are functional and decorative, they go in boxes of four accounts and each one has a different function. “Count on you”, makes reference to the fact that each one is going to ride a easy way and very practical, hence the “with you”. The assembly and use, which can have between if these objects are created with the purpose is to notify the customer of creativity.
