Merchandise
Throughout the age of innovation, there are few inventions that have had a greater impact on our current situation than the pallet, and it’s cousin, the shipping container. These devices have allowed global commerce to flourish, sending products all over the world, rapidly expanding human’s footprint. With this increasing amount of stuff in the world, what becomes of the leftover pallet and shipping crate having fulfilled its purpose? Using collected pallets, a constructed shipping container has inverted this process of going from small to large, from sustainable to disposable, mass produced and one-of-a-kind. The feeling of enclosure and being trapped is profound when placed inside the container and you cannot help but feel you are the product.
