“Grand Crus Cup Parade” is produced from 100% recycled Aluminium Capsules that Nespresso followers return to Recycling Stations.
Called Grand Crus Cup Parade, the pieces are each made of recycled aluminium and styled to resemble Nespresso’s range of capsules in sixteen colours. The designers propose a system where customers return their used capsules for recycling in order to collect points, which they can exchange for the set.
The design was one of three winning entries in a competition entitled Sustain.Ability.Design, sponsored by Vienna Design Week organisers Neigungsgruppe Design and Nespresso Austria.
Dottings was invited to present their idea concerning the theme Nespresso & Sustainability for a Vienna Design Week Exhibition. What was developed is a Vision – from the used Nespresso capsule to a designed Recyclingproduct.
Recycling Aluminium requires just 10% of the energy compared to extraction of new aluminium.
The shape of “Grand Crus Cup Parade” is dedicated to the capsule. In Small, Medium & Large Size, in 16 Nespresso Blend Colours, the cups define perfect size of each coffee. It´s a klind of “guidance system” for Nespresso Coffees Selection.
