Large cities are growing exponentially, and the phenomenon of gentrification is pushing some citizens into areas increasingly distant from their workplaces. Obo is a service that aims to spread passive slow-cooking by providing knowledge, events and a specific product. Conceived primarily for daily commuters, obo-bag converts everyday commuting time into passive energy to cook. The insulation provided by the materials enables pre-heated food items to cook passively in longer amounts of time.
