I suppose the idea is to show how easy it can be to plant a farm in a big city, with limited space and in a gas guzzling truck? However, the trailer did it’s job and has [...] It’s great to see recycled products being made from just about everything and anything these days. These ‘Trench Coat Bags’ created by Ouno Design caught my eye the other day while browsing products on Etsy. It’s such a clever use for such an iconic style from our past.

This brief window of free viewing on YouTube is sponsored by PPR. ‘Home’ reminds us all of just how important it has become that we change our ways when it comes to our growing population and our energy needs. Not only is the [...] From what I have read and can gather about this Greenpeace project from their nicely designed website, the goal is to save massive amounts of energy by installing one black pixel on every tube and plasma monitor in the world.

Happy Earth Day folks. Take a break. Remind yourself that we are in fact all shooting stars and that the glassy blue spinning miracle planet we all reside on is not just here to facilitate our nasty little human habits. The above video is a trailer for a [...] Design: Vancouver Convention Centre – BC, Canada from Vancouver Convention Centre on Vimeo. This is one of a series of videos available on Vimeo in regard to the new Vancouver Convention Center. The architects and interior designers discuss their vision and the creative process behind the creation of the convention Center. Packed full of many sustainable [...] The idea of creating an everyday object like a desktop computer out of cardboard can at first be an discomforting idea.

However, I’m certain that all or some of these issues can [...] |
