Seeing as we've been posting about water and the environment of late Elisabeth Buecher's My Shower Curtain is a Green Warrior (above) really got our attention. The goal of the piece was to show how water overconsumption could be countered in "either a disturbing or a gorgeous way" using innovative materials and inflatable technology. According to Elisabeth, "This shower curtain slowly inflates around you while you shower. It leaves you only a few minutes to take your shower before trapping you." Better hurry.
Elizabeth is part Puff and Flock a new London-based textiles collective that launched at Interiors Birmingham with Designersblock earlier this year. The collective has several members; Kathy Schicker, Amélie Labarthe, Aurélie Mossé, Aysseline Roy, Jenny Leary, Melissa French and Jo Angell. We'll be featuring more of their work in subsequent posts. More Green Warrior after the jump.
