Bio Accessories each have a living component to give a piece of nature to urban dwellers. The accessories range from pins to head wear, and even face masks, to help hide the sights and sounds of urban living.
The designers of Bio Accessories, Ben Landau and Brittany Veitch, say their pieces are “mobile natural environments” that allow wearers to create relationships with nature.
The pieces are currently on display at the Melbourne City Library in Australia until August 30th.
