Herbarium Taste: An Educational Food Design Project by Valentina Raffaelli

Being that we are what we eat, trained architect and interior designer Valentina Raffaelli developed a project that aims to share the nutritional and health benefits of certain foods. The project, Herbarium taste, includes technical drawings with facts of these foods in hopes of informing people in a simplified, easy-to-understand way.

The project, in combination with pop-up events, happens every week with a new food subject where people get to smell, taste, and eat whatever the topic is.

Sounds like a smart way to educate people on healthy eating!
