The To Be line is a fantastic line of decorative vases inspired by the concept of design using modular elements, which are common to the entire Ecodesign collection. Through the crystal clear glass of every object a message is sent to you. To Be is a statement and reminds us through the showing of the roots of the plants or the flower stem, that every show has a “behind the scenes” that requires commitment and care. The essential lines are the result of the combination of simple components in various shapes and sizes.

Made up of a glass part and a part available in various other materials such as cardboard, wood, methacrylate, aluminum, carbon, bioplastic etc. each TO BE vase can be brought back to life, just by the replacement damaged parts.

TO BE | Eco plastic vase
Bioplastic blends delicately with cardboard and together they gently embrace a vase containing a flower or a plant. Thus one of the most innovative environmentally friendly materials adapts to life and shows it through the proud lines of a symbolic object such as To Be vase, made even more dynamic by this crossover of materials. It is a metaphor for the care towards the hidden parts of nature and this is enhanced by a new ally, bioplastic, as imaginative as it is eco-friendly, that eventually can be melted down without polluting our ecosystem. Design meets here a latest-generation biodegradable material, the result of research by a business enterprise of great prestige such as Mazzucchelli1849 Spa, the historic Italian company active in the field of plastics.
