We are living in the age of waste. Design has helped create our throwaway culture – can design help us leave it behind? A new generation of designers is rethinking our relationship to everyday things. From fashion to packaging, electronics to construction, finding the lost value in our trash and imagining a future of organic materials could point the way out of the waste age. This book showcases some of the visionary designers who are reinventing our relationship with waste, including Formafantasma, Stella McCartney, Lacaton & Vassal, Atelier Luma, Rotor, Fernando Laposse, Bethany Williams, Phoebe English and Natsai Audrey Chieza.
