Few people can imagine how recycled plastic will end up. Therefore, we wanted to create an object that would allow people to get a sense of how plastic ends up in their own hands. The crayons using colored plastic used for plastic bottles' cap. Since the caps are available in all three primary colors, we believe that adding a smaller amount of pigment than in the normal production process will allow us to increase color variations with less environmental impact. The crayon was molded from the bottom of a plastic bottle: It is an form created by men.
