Virgil Abloh

How Virgil Abloh practised sustainability

 The late Virgil Abloh was the artistic director of Louis Vuitton men’s wear and founder of off-white. In 2019, Abloh designed a limited edition 750ml glass water bottle in collaboration with water company “Evian” as part of the “one drop can make a rainbow” concept. The swirling design of blue dots is a representation of water droplets and their ripple effect, ultimately showing how singular sustainable actions add up to a greater impact on the Earth. 

In 2020 Abloh then designed two reusable glass bottles in collaboration with again “Evian” and “soma”  Not only were the bottles designed to be aesthetically pleasing to the eye: they were made shatter resistant, easy to grip with their silicone sleeves and leak proof to avoid those bag spillages we all hate. Not to mention the beautiful, natural bamboo caps.
