This project was born from a love of the mountains, nurtured by hiking, trekking, and nights spent bivouacking in the Alps. These experiences shaped my desire to create and rethink the objects we travel with.

Respect for the mountains is at the heart of my approach. Current outdoor equipment often relies on heavy industry, which is energy-intensive and based on synthetic materials with a significant environmental impact. This contradiction between the desire to be in nature and the means used to access it raises questions for me.

In this context, the project proposes a low-tech approach to equipment. A more direct and less energy-intensive way of producing. The objects are designed to minimize the manufacturing process. They are conceived as flat, cut from a single piece of material. Their design also optimizes material usage and reduces waste. Some objects are also designed as extensions of items already present in a hiker's gear.

All the objects are made of wool felt. A natural material with numerous benefits, such as its strength, insulation, and biodegradability. In fragile environments like the mountains, it is essential that the items we carry leave no trace behind. Wool also gives value to a local resource that is often underutilized and sometimes considered waste.

These six items aim to improve life on the move by creating forms of comfort through various actions. Designed for carrying in a backpack, they are compact and made from a single piece of material. When laid flat, they can also be easily stored in a mountain hut.

This project is for hikers and mountain lovers mindful of their impact, for those willing to carry a few extra grams to help preserve the environment.
