Baggu Bag. A whole bunch of simple and good-looking bags here. The first one is a re-usable bag which has the same design as a standard plastic bag, but holds the content of 2-3 grocery bags. You also have the net bag for veggies, which keeps your green stuff fresh. Last the duck bag which is suitable for all kinds of usage; books, groceries, laptop – an allround bag made of 100& recycled cotton canvas.

2 different bag collections made by Camille Rousseau. She is transforming the standard shopping bags into something beautiful and communicative, using them to tell a story. The two bags on the top are for EDF Energy, a sustainable energy company. The second concept is called Transition. She explains the project:

“Dealing with the preconception of this consumer icon, I took the surface of a carrier bag to capture a moment, taking the object as a passing reflection of the city. The ephemeral object becomes a witness of time and space. In selecting details of the city and linking an individual story to each bag, I aim to recreate a stage showing several perspectives of the city. I wanted a physical link between the drawings and the reality. The set itself becomes the city; connecting people to different locations.”

Envirosax shopping bags. On their web page you can read it’s just a matter of time until we all have to change our habits, from disposable plastic bags to reusable bags. It’s also something we should teach the next generation. And instead of using your retailer’s bag, which is part of their advertising campaign, Envirosax is selling bags with different graphic themes. If I understood it right, they will also, in short, offer customized bags.
