CINZA

During an intense summer workshop organized by Cemex and the Tec de Monterrey, a selected group of designers worked together with chemical engineers to generate concepts that would recycle the toxic material ''fly ash'' without being harmful for the environment and the users. The result was ''Cinza'', a family of products for the garden that turns ash into green.
