UNIVERSAL HOUSE

Here's a specific chapter. Let's create a house together..From our old blog to this wiki. What happens if you want to create a house, by using creative resources from all different cultures and backgrounds? In other words, can we bring together designers, architects from different parts of the globe, and force them to collaborate? They have their own cultural heritage, past. How can they - together- create a better future? Ideas and projects will be published and exhibited...

Ideas already in.

LABBIES

For an overview of the workshop on Eco Design with students: check the Labbie pages.

	A range of furniture that fits in a suitcase. People tend to feel more at home when they have their belongings with them. Your home can be your universe.	Anita Nevens (Singapore)
	Close up of the 'Background Stories' system of communicating the life-cycle of a product. By educating consumers on the processes a product goes through (and the social and environmental impact of those processes) we can encourage more sustainable purchasing patterns.	Labmember Arlene Birt (US)
	ECOCok, Thanks to ECOCok you can easily prepare a meal, using one single cooking plate. Only the red part, which is the hotest, is on the plate and conducts heat to the orange parts where you can cook or warm up food slowly, at a low temperature. Putting a pan on it is another possible interest. ECOCok offers you several cooking temperatures and limits all kinds of loss of heat.	Aurélie Delville
Valerie Wilms	Flore de Crombrugghe	Nuno Oliveira
