Teabox Bag

(2023)

Teabox Bag- in collaboration with Zak Ziebell
The form factor was inspired by Japanese sagemono, or wooden hanging containers used to carry small objects. The bag conforms to the exact dimensions of a (now redesigned, but always iconic) Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Teabox. I modeled the front into a pink trompe l’oeil cutaway, while Zak sculpted the back into a complex bas relief. Color vinyl 3-D print.
