Glowing filtration tree

What is it: These trees look like art pieces. But they're not only beautiful, but also good for Mother nature. They help her to clean the air. The CO2 filtration system is powered by solar panels lining the top of each “tree.” And they are only made out of old plastic bottles.

Why it's cool: They look beautiful and they are also green. This is a good example how to make the world greener and also more beautiful with one creation. These trees are also cool because the help Mother nature with her biggest problem. C02 from cars is one of the biggest toxic gases for the earth. So I think it's cool that these fake trees clean our air.

What it is:

Book desks!

What it is: It is a desk, but not an ordinary desk. It's made out of old books. You can find it at the TU Delft Architecture Bibliotheek.

Why it's cool? There are so many books. Old books new books and damaged books. In stead of trowing them away, you can use them to make something beautifull. It's something nice for myself. I've plenty of books and I could use them also to make a desk or mabye a bed..... Nice for al interlectuals who have the same problem!

F*ck all the electronics!

What is it? It's a shout out from people who speek in the name of Mother Nature! The maker of this pencel wants to tell the world that you can also make art with only a pencel instead of all the electronics and poisonning stuf. It's better for Mother Nature!

Why it's cool? This is a very simple but useful way to tell a message to the world. I tells them what you stand for. To use minimal stuf to creat beautifull things. So leave your laptop and leave your photoshop. It will not only help your work, but also help the envoirement. I did it last week during the No impact week!

The Makedo kit

What is it? This is the Makedo kit. It's a helping hand for making your own things out of old packaging boxes, tubes and empty containers from household waste. In the Makedo kit you find three components which will help you: you find a plastic saw and spike in the handle tool to make holes and sculpt card, together with two types of fixing fittings that allow you to join packaging together.

Why is it cool? Instead of playing with there Playstations or watching television you can give this to your children. You don't have to buy lots of toys made of plastic and other polluting materials. You can use and recycle your own household waste. It's much better for the environment and your children will love it. Because children love to create things out of old packaging boxes, tubes and empty containers.

'The possibilities of what you can make with makedo are limited only by the materials you find and your imagination.'
