About the project
La Planta is a bag that was born from the salty taste of Danish sea and its surroundings. The passion for sustainable local products and the desire to create some-thing new by bringing out seemingly ordinary materials.
The structure of the bag is made of hand-woven fabric combined with the Lyme grass, that was collected at the shores of the sea.
The freshness and coolness of the Lyme grass comes together in a warm symbiosis with local danish wool fibers to create a bag that reflects the surroundings we enjoy and want to connect to. This bag is a reminder and the carrier of the sea tranquility and its atmosphere. The smell of the dry Lyme grass will be your reminder to stop sometimes in your busy life and drift into calm waters.
