Art and Design CAN make a difference

In a society where we are encouraged to buy products to enrich our lives through ADVERTISING and the media, we can not deny that art and design can make a difference in people's perception. If more designers (and this is ANY designers - fashion, industrial, graphic, interior, etc...) act responsibly and choose sustainable options, we can make a HUGE difference. Let's do it!


"‘Petal Packs’ are made from empty, unwanted Coke bottles. They easily pop open and closed & can be used as a gift holder, a gift in itself with some chocolates or sweets inside, a trinket / jewellery box, a vase, even a candle holder." For more info call Bhanoo on 082-637-4000 or email Bhanoo.Sukha@yahoo.com.

Awesome, Zafaya!

You can find some amazing books on green architecture and eco building, such as:
"Design for Sustainability" by Janis Birkeland
"The Green House" by Alanna Stang & Christopher Hawthorne
"The New Eco-architecture" by Colin Porteous

as well as online sources like
http://www.sustainableabc.com.
Urban Sprout also focuses a bit on green architecture, and they have a directory of architects that does green, if you looking for a mentor: click here
