    Found is a super lightweight, metal-plated flatware set. Diaz selects highly standardized, found plastic bottles and inge-niously reworks them along their curvatures. The cut forms are coated with copper and then tin-plated. Production can be achieved in small, unique batches and without the need for moulds. Diaz works more as an editor than designer in Found and he manages to work magic, spinning straw into gold.




    Found was recently exhibited at the 13,798 Grams of design exhibition at the 2010 Salone del Mobile.
