BENTO

Project done with fellow Sheridan ID student Quinn Macgowan

The intention with Bento was to design a reusable produce bag which replaces the current plastic bags provided at grocery stores. We have taken into account the typical shopper’s needs by designing a versatile, easy to handle textile bag and plastic basket which will protect and provide aeration for your produce. Bento is a playful take on mindful shopping and reducing waste made from single use plastic bags.
