For thousands of years humans have experimented with various
methods of waste disposal-from burning and burying to simply
packing up and moving in search of an unscathed environment. Habits
of disposal are deeply ingrained in our daily lives, so casual and
continual that we rarely ever stop to ponder the big-picture
effects on social, spatial and ecological orders. Rethinking the
ways in which we produce, collect, discard and reuse our waste,
whether it's materials, spaces or places, is essential to ensure a
more feasible future. Waste Matters: Adaptive Reuse for Productive
Landscapes presents a series of historical and contemporary design
ideas that reimagine a range of repurposed materials at diverse
scales and in various contexts by exploring methods of hacking,
disassembly, reassembly, recycling, adaptive reuse and preservation
of the built environment. Waste Matters will inspire designers to
sample and rearrange bits of artifacts from the past and present to
produce culturally relevant and ecologically sensitive materials,
objects, architecture and environments.
