  • Disenio-Cartonero-Cardboard-Pencil-Case-1
    Inspired by the classic solid wood slide top pencil case, designer and craftsman Santiago Morahan re-designed this 'old school' classic out of cardboard. Founder of Disenio Cartonero, a brand that makes everything out of the extremely versatile material, Morahan not only makes eco-friendly products, but he directly helps local people through this socially aware design project. The cardboard he uses is bought from local "cartoneros" (independent urban recyclers or garbage collectors) for a higher price that they would receive if they sold it recycling centers, in turn shortening the process and making it even more environmentally friendly....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/sliding-recycled-cardboard-pencil-cases-are-too-cool-for-school/'>READ ARTICLE</a>
