When the wind is stronger than the rods, there are dozens of umbrellas left lying around. Anna and Yasmin decided to take them and give them a new life. They have set up drop-off points all over the country where people can leave what they find on the street and, with the help of artisans, R-Coat transforms the fabrics into coats, bags, hats, and shorts. The project is called R-Coat and, not only does it reuse what would go to waste, but it takes this sustainability focus into every detail of the production process.
