Marrying table etiquette with outdoor dining

[Snap and Dine single-use tableware]

What a quirky way of reinventing the idea of a picnic in the park. The work of product designer Demelza Hill, Snap and Dine is a "portable lunch setting that reinforces some of the tables manners and etiquette that have been lost over time." Presented at the Milan design festival and International Furniture Fair, the design won the young designer the British Council's National Design Award for 2007.

I would love to see it on the retail shelves some day! Bear in mind that it's truly green too: components made out of completely bio-degradable plastic resin.
