The materials of the project need to reflect the ethos and design considerations we have. Sustainability, the life-cycle of the materials and re-using what we can are key. Sourcing missions are important, using what we already have, the celair, bubble-wrap and pallets that we have found in Docklands dumpsters, and finding weeds and moss from around the area. We are cleaning, gleaning and re-working with what we have and finding that we should justify every time we buy something, if we need it and how we might up-cycle it. We are working with chicken wire and hay that can then be taken to a farm in Birregurra for fencing a veggie garden. The structure itself could be taken to a new environment and be clad in different materials.
