There’s No Time to Waste

VisualNature

Quick reflection from my dog walk this morning, on the importance of urban nature and greening our town and cities.
Oh hello August, a reminder that 7 years ago I set up as an independent business, Technical Nature.
A number of months ago I was invited on to the “ Impact Goal Rush” podcast with the wonderful @woontan
👋 how’s everyone doing in the heat?
More nature time calls 🌊
Laptop down 💻
This was a reminder I made to myself to do for July and August at the beginning of the year when I realised I was “fully booked” until then with work and commitments - knowing my time would be limited to spend on exploring wider creative development and my ever evolving (re)design practice.
Ever wondered just how a plastic drinks bottle can be turned into a yarn, textile and clothes that we might wear?
Reading this, as a woman and working as a design engineer this is not new to me, and some is lived experience, but the extent …… and some of the examples in this book! I encourage you to read, reflect and continually question and challenge the world and systems designed around you.
