Ratn - A Rattan Weave Laptop Companion

The intent was to make a sustainable and portable laptop stand. This was achieved by making a two-in-one laptop case cum stand. The making sought to bring together local crafts and materials, Cane and Leather handicrafts and reclaimed Teak wood, to create a high-end product. The life-cycle of each material and the overall carbon footprint of the product were carefully considered.
