Building anything is inherently wasteful, but does it have to be? We meet six innovators reimagining the role of waste in our world.
More than a third of Australia’s 67 million tonnes of waste comes from construction and demolition. Concrete, glass, steel, and timber that are no longer fit for use. But why not?
What role does design play in the inherently wasteful, unsustainable building of our homes and the things that fill them? Six key designers and inventors are finding the utility in our forgotten furniture, binned plastics, construction waste, and discarded appliances. Exploring the origins of their passion for sustainability, Wonderful Waste follows them as they pave the way to a brighter future. A future that is not only more beautiful and sustainable but one in which the benefits can be experienced by all.
