The Shoelaces collection is made up of five models of hanging lamps and two table lamps. They are made by hand in the workshops of the foundations Arrels and San Martín de Porres. They come in single colours (red, black, grey and fluor and multi-colour combinations that can also be personalised. Each one of them is different. They are unique pieces. Because of how they are made and because they have been made with the participation of many people who believe that design can also be used to build a better society. This is not charity, but rather a chance to offer more disadvantaged people new opportunities to feel valid and creatively alive. Shoelaces is a Curro Claret project arising from his collaboration with the company Camper and the foundations Arrels in Barcelona and San Martín de Porres in Madrid. It is the result of a chain of actions carried out with the idea of involving a group of people at risk of social exclusion –who have lived on the street in the past– in a design process, as an opportunity to help them with their recovery.
