Wild Edible … Flavor Paper? 0-Calorie, Fat-Free ‘Slim Chips’
Counting calories? Worried about your weight or just want to worry less  about what you consume? Forget food: if all you want is something tasty  to snack on without the calorie or fat content, why limit yourself to  eating things normally classified as ‘edible’ … when you could just have  organic flavor-packed paper in a bag?
Yes, Hafsteinn Juliusson brought these to Milan where most people were exhibiting furniture,  furnishing or fixture designs. Instead of bringing his own work of art  or interior design object, he supplied visitors with strange and unique  faux food filled with the tastes of peppermint, blueberry, cheddar,  wasabi or sweet potato (and likewise unusually vibrant colors).
It sounds strange, but it makes quite a bit of sense from a dietary  perspective – no-calorie treats that can replace the habit of eating  normal fat-filled potato chips complete with the same shape, size,  texture and plastic packaging. And the flavors are varied enough for any  taste: sweet, spicy, savory – artificial flavoring makes it possible.

Growing Jewelry, by HAF, by Hafsteinn Juliusson

Growing Jewelry is a redefinition of modern values. It is a clash of jewelry and gardening: couture and organism. The collection of this hand jewelry is designed for people in metropolitan cities and is an experiment in drawing nature toward man, as nature being the presupposition of life.
