Our lives take a toll on the environment. What if our last breath could be one of giving back? AfterLife is a new biodegradable material created from food industry leftovers, infused with flowers from which new life grows, creating new nature, thus giving a new meaning to life after death.
A funeral takes its toll on the environment. How beautiful would it be to support nature as we pass on, to give our body back to the earth and help nourish it? To create a moment of passing that is not only emotionally meaningful but also manifests itself
