Cigarette set

Taboo

SFr. 59.00

Design: LPWK , Silvia Barile

Taboo is a cigarette set designed by LPWK and Silvia Barile. This small object has been designed to intercepts the rising popularity of a more conscious approach towards smoking, especially among young people, who tend to replace industrial cigarettes with roll-your-own cigarettes, made with good loose tobacco chosen in a tobacconist's. Taboo is the perfect partner to develop a more conscious and contained consumption. Cigarettes made with loose tobacco create a different relationship with smoking, which is "slow" and less compulsive. Moreover, the amount of tobacco used to roll a cigarette is half that contained in an industrial one.
