Curvaceous | Limburg curved asparagus | My 3rd Term Finals | 2011
Nowadays we just see perfect vegetables on the market because the imperfect ones stay in the farm, although taste and quality are the same in both cases. The “de Poshoof” family farm just set up a Bed & Breakfast so they can give the delicious but “imperfect” curved asparagus to their guest inside a cozy and home-made package to have a snack during their visits around Maastricht; a package that the guests receive as a business present from the “de Poshoof” farm to be used afterward in their daily life as often as they want since it can be cleaned in the washing machine. By transferring the shape of the harvesting land into the package, the curved asparagus become more sculptural when they are faced to the straight lines and surfaces of the wrapping, a wrapping made out of two sewn layers -a polypropylene plastic foil as a dish and an organic cotton fabric as a napkin- to help people to re-discover again what nature really produces.
(+) My specialty is the curved asparagus from “de Poshoof” farm in Maastricht. I found terrible the fact that the farmer cannot sell the curved asparagus because of market reasons. This family farm just set up a Bed and Breakfast and they have to provide a nice breakfast to their guests every morning. My product is a take-away package to have an asparagus-based breakfast and make the most of the day around Maastricht, by using origami shapes for the package, with straight lines and surfaces to empower the curved shape of the asparagus, and to transfer the shape of the harvesting terrain into the package as well. This take-away package works as a 2-sided eating kit: one side is made out of plastic to have a hygienic surface to eat; the other side is made out of fabric to have a napkin to clean your fingers. Both layers of the package are sewn together and can be easily cleaned in the washing machine to reuse it as often as you want. You, as a guest of the Bed and Breakfast, will receive this breakfast package as a present the first day and you will take it at home to use it whenever you like instead of throwaway aluminium foil. Since the package has the name of the farm, every time you use it, you will remember what a wonderful time you spent there and maybe plan a new visit.
