TOTEMO
Inspiring Learning Projects
TOTEMO was produced first using plywood with connectors made from recycled PET bottles. Recently,
together with studio Pitoresq, we have developed a 100% recycled version. Pitoresq studio processes
ordinary plastic waste-shaping it by thermal compression. The process is carried out at the lowest
possible temperature to prevent the release of any harmful substances. We like the transformation of
TOTEMO into a completely recycled form because we no more needto manufacture new material.
Because what precisely are we passing on to the next generation by constantly producing new
objects? And what do children in turn learn by being exposed to recycled materials and the recycling principles from a tender age?
