Cradle to Cradle > simplified


Watch the video

Went 'verge shopping' again this morning in search for some nice plant pots and whatever I fancy or can use and was stunned again by the amount and quality of stuff people throw away as well as by the amount of e-waste on the verge in Nedlands...

We, designers, engineers, architects and everyone else who is at the start of the creating process, have to pay far more attention to this problem to prevent the amount of waste going to landfill!


Cradle to Cradle Design

Architect William McDonough calls for remaking the way we make things by transforming human industry through ecologically intelligent design. He argues that the current industrial system that "takes, makes and wastes" can become a creator of goods and services that generate ecological, social and economic value.
