The designer wants to raise awareness about the problem of current dietary habits, namely: the consumption of highly processed foods, hasty meals, and the disappearance of local food cultures. The project offers a possible solution to the problem, based on building healthy habits by encouraging individuals to make their own food. The designed set consists of three ceramic vessels for different categories of products which can be fermented: vegetables and fruits, drinks, and dairy. The containers have special lids and pans for hermetic sealing, which can also be used as serving bowls. There are also cotton covers, which protect the food from external impurities, eliminate strong smells, and provide airflow.
