Started in 2006 by Lauren Robertson, Totally Tubular Design is
dedicated to using as much trash as possible to create the coolest
products possible. For a girl who hates seeing things go to waste,
the perfect project for Lauren was to combine artistic skills with a
STRONG desire to help the environment. By enlisting the help of
local bike shops Lauren was able to create a line of products that are
100% reused.
Chief Tubular: Lauren Robertson, a young entrepreneur and
triathlete, grew up in Southern California, but left to go to school
north in Davis, California. After four years of riding bicycles as her
only transportation, living with hippies, and seeing recycling cans
everywhere Lauren felt like Davis was home.
When she moved back to Agoura Hills it was a shock to the system.
Environmentalists don't run as rampant and it was scary for her. The
solution: Show people how cool and easy it is to recycle with fashion!
And so Totally Tubular Design was born. In the garage of her
friend's condo, Lauren got to work creating bags of all shapes and
sizes, as well as wallets, belts, and anything she could think of!
Products were narrowed down and designs were finalized (but still
always changing) with the final product being Totally Tubular Design!

Ecologist in Training: Our friend
Gabby is one of the coolest eco savvy 10
year olds we know. She is hip to the
cause and loves to donate her time
helping Totally Tubular in any way she
can! Gabby is an expert at cutting tubes,
and she gained her nickname "The Girl
Who Cried GOO" by having the ability to
find all the slimed inner tubes BEFORE
they get cut open. Thanks Gabby!
