Redesigning for Fictional Values

Statement of Intent

This product has a goal of starting a conversation about the overcomplication of basic needs and how the movement against single-use plastics has become somewhat hypocritical and overly commercialized. The conversation I am trying to start with this product is how much complication, customization, and choice is really necessary to simply meet a basic need that humans have been meeting since the beginning of time? Has the environmental movement against single-use plastics gone too far and at what point do the pros outweigh the cons? These thoughts and questions should be provoked when using this product.
