and i think it is important to bring it in. so every day lives because it hold significance and, you know, it provides energy to keep me going. tap remax, dw, or sports, all of our scoring. we say they were about never giving up sports flies every weekend on dw, the welcome to home waste. sustainability meets modern design, where eco friendliness alex jerry is living, co exist in perfect harmony. this is house and a game. yeah. but before we step into the sustainable home and experience the ultimate in green living,

we meet the kids who do an award winning illustrate so from johannesburg, taking the 0 culture to this guys explore the vibrant culture, all exams, the box, a tropical power dies off the coast often zenia then we head on over to gone to to meet larry j. m. c. how he of cycles they can hand column and into fashionable clothing. i'm problem tenga, and you're watching a free mx. the . the pin is my 2 of them. the sword is a saying that embodies the power of writing. this is what motivated kenyan inventor

have moved omari to recycle news papers. i'm make pencils accessible and affordable in kenya. small offenses was a brilliant idea because they're treated dealing with some of the things i've experienced before. i looked at the to say, this is a very unique idea and it's out of the box. if we're able to create to actually end up with a tangible product, then each means that nothing is impossible own use to pause in kenya. i usually store in a week or used to wrap up product like me. my mood or marie has found another week to give yesterday's head length a new future. i'm ok so it is a green manufacturing company that can be reflective spencer from a cycles newspapers, pencils, a made from a 100 percent disciple. it is because everything is source located. the only thing that been being or input from upside is a graphite that to use because that is not available. locating the 1st step in actually making defense of steps with cutting the new spectrum sites. the next step

is now in setting the graphite. this is done by putting blue and then setting the graphite. and once that is done, it goes to the fed stage, which is now the process from this passing event right for about 3 days, right in the sun, then would now polish defensive. give it a small finish after that depends on the shipping and what the ship end to the end was for quality control to make sure that it's doable. it's made all the data requirements that in terms of low quality to standards, then it goes into parking. and is ready to go for the market as a factory or capacity right now. we're able to do up to 40000 pencils a day. we can do a minimum of $70000.00, let me know $1017.00 a month. this is subject to the or the demand that comes in. so we looked at the impact of and read them into that right now. climate change is a very big topic everywhere. so we can use that and seen as an advocate of

environmental awareness to use the children to input the children and transform the mindset. so they can, i book it for a better environment for the children. and the children's children pencils, kim, as an opportunity to say, look, now it's possible to model frontier principles from recycling this purpose. this is an idea that we'd like to try. we had to do research and we said yes, it's a very viable and it's unique. so lucas jump on to it, it'll be there for us to those to do this and be able to use that as a tool to not only supported nutrition, but at the same time to be able to support the environment because they're not coming to invite them in to 90 with, according to the word bunk, estimate to $2400.00 tons of solid waste is generated in a ruby every be a month. this includes news because we are discarded of to use. how does one, okay, how big vitamin attempts entitlement in 2 ways, one,

it 2 moves with from the environment in terms of newspapers, business purpose and that from the landfill and daily just to add up to the pollution. secondly, they put this coming up with an option for the intensive. what we had advocating is that we should stop cutting trees to make friends, since there is another option that is more equal friendly, that can be able to reduce the number of cheese that i've got to make themselves the process of dining, discard it, and use the post into pencil seems like a very liberal. how is that my mood has been doing the since 2017 and now has the down to a fine art they help for the to continue to see us at also was to schools and plants, cheese. by dream that reassuring them that you have a very important role to play in advocating for vitamin to see children learn by

experience. so they plant that tree that will remember their whole life in sub saharan africa. more than one in 3 adults cannot treat a 182000000 adults unable to read and write. when 48000000 youth between the ages of 15 to 24 are electric access procession. that a for me, when i was this point, we were this at the system where a lot of this teams are provided by the government to free. and so as long as you are in the government school or you what i can to the excise books, pencils and everything that you needed was already covered the when we're in the hopefully to see come paid last year. we impacted that 145000 school children. this 145000. each one was able to get our pensive and we managed to get to schools and

planted trees for planted about 7500 trees and left you alone. with these recycling conceals, that's my mood tons out keys, not only giving children the tools needed to a fill in life, but also making them aware of the environment by using these waste people to create these through an expensive no innovation that made sustainability for the future. i think is of outside that house and the gay yeah, is a modern environment to be friendly. home utilizes low maintenance ad locally source materials and places emphasis on the coast of inability. i just sent it around to providence indigenous tree that stands in the garden courtyard. i'm joined by gregory cuts to tell us small. gregory were standing on the rooftop of house in a game. yeah. tell me

a bit more about the push towards sustainability in your industry. if you're not thinking about sustainability, if you're designing time, especially homes, like those from scratch, then you're not doing your job proxies. you know it's such a big issue. can you tell us about the breeze that you receive from the client? some of those things that came up in those initial conversations were like and formal way of living requirement for the 1st time. and in particular, was that the one to the house? i'm a single level state into tiny lots and so really we needed a lot of space for, for inter turning and we made very big m r from planned gestures on the ground floor for the kitchen and kind of integrated into the space into the, into the into time and space and the challenges when you, when you're making space, it's like this, the kind of floor is how do you keep them close their various strategies that we adopt to, to make them feel more intimate. but you know, it's a lot for care. we've got this amazing climates and um,

and so it's the house is also very open. it's open to the landscape. this huge doors it's, it's basically a dropbox that slipped from the ground. and these 2 defining planes, the one is the gone plane and the other one is the ceiling claim. and then these various objects would treat insert into that into that box. you know what i am looking forward to seeing everything around the house. the does inches really is an award winning illustrative that has received blue cross cold blue are you award? she's a female illustrate to that aims to bring her culturally inspired all twigs into the male dominated graphic novel industry. liftgate inspired, imagined zulu called to up in the skies the significance of my license. the collaboration was quite a big deal because it's something i never imagined would ever be able to do as an industry to have in my work on the interior. how the plane is not something i had

in the plans, but i'm very thankful for the opportunity. it help significance because i suppose i wanted to find a bigger platform to express south african culture and have people see it and takes you to call to, to this guys. the j. d. ziller is an illustrate thing. his work not only showcases his skill as an artist, but also brings the representation of african culture as to the fold. she's a custodian, those really called stuff saving condition and educating others through eye catching illustrations. i would consider that illustration isn't necessarily a medium, it's a specialty. and within that specialty you can use many mediums to illustrate. and i chose illustration because it has great communicative power in the sense that you can communicate to a large audience to visual appeal. and you can cross multiple languages and barriers between people just through the appeal and visual as a tell,

think they found it difficult to relate to illustrations instantly. cultural books, even though they would visually interesting it to the to characters. she could relate to now being an illustration or herself, it's motivated her to correct that in balance in her work. i'm working on a comic book. the name of the comic book is nandita, the protect of there's a new kingdom. it's my passion project. it is literally my baby because it is actually inspired by my niece who was born recently. so it's named off to her. it's also story about a young girl who was trying to figure out what it's like to have dreams, where she needs with some of her ancestors and she learns different ways of life. she's quote between the suburbs and the township, and she's just navigating the world in between those 2 spaces. one of the characters is assigned to them and she is a guide for the main character and kind of gives her a little bit about life lessons that she can carry through out her own life. you

know, i have relatives and my grandmother was also assigned to my so we kind of had that 1st hand experience of what a supplement is and what they do. and essentially a single mother, someone who kind of gives you a little bit more guidance, spiritual guidance on your life, and how to go about certain things with caution. and so i think kids work and leads to her own flu cold, so the also entices others to discover the traditions she aims to impact the educate should say to by integrating her illustrations with teaching literacy in south africa. this is because i grew up in the suburbs and i went to model c schools. so i didn't necessarily have that much of an understanding of my ancestors and the traditions of my culture. although whenever family did come together and have these traditions, i was always curious about once payment, what the, what, and i think it is important to bring it into our everyday lives and peace of mind

everyday life because it hold significance. and, you know, it provides energy to keep me going from pages to balls who may seduce, carried strongly through her images and the color. she uses this all to it gives a don't on the walls of jewels to tea in the st. the of the head is vague. so my mural reps around the entire building. and the challenge that i had was to tell the story with the mural. the story behind the mural is basically about a young girl who's traveling through town and she gets on a text me to the spiritual plane. and then the story, she picks up to the items, little pieces of a tie up from the culture that she with. and through that journey, she kind of understand the connection back to her own culture. i would like for people to look at the work, see a sense of brightness, be reminded of some child like quality and the way that they may be create. but the

reason why i use bright to tons of color throughout all my pilots is to try to foster a sense of joy and happiness. just a few steps from the mural is a place we some of our ideas came a live david crude projects. think case, collaboration with the studio allows you to dip her feet in the 1st print from a king. this was a collaboration between myself and the director of the workshop, which is i'm a bo and the most to print, to cover the series, which is proxy catch break. each of the characters find themselves and these all could predicaments within the city. and i kind of touch on stereotypes and the illustrations themselves and stereotypes like the ways that foreigners are kind of portrayed in the city and how, how it feels like as a person to one to escape south africa because of the things that are happening in our country and i also touch on the comedic side of things because these creatures

awkward and i feel like a lot of the viewers can identify themselves in each of the creatures and identify with how strange it can be. it's to be in a city that's still developing, still recovering from all of its history and all of its cost and trying to be represented as something that's a little bit more diverse and more of the community. i think that it's important to break stereotypes because they form the fundamental of prejudice and they kind of eliminate the need to see people as individuals. and i think that that need is really important. and this is why i tried to challenge stereotypes in my own work. we are a young country, i am the age of the democracy of our country. and i still believe that we have so much to offer as fontose, as illustrators. and as individuals in general, being in control of how the country is represented in some way, shape or form, i think is important so that the rest of the world can see south africa in

a new contemporary light. case work is a testament to the fact that by modernizing the messages of the cost, we can learn where we come from and still appreciate how it is relevant to our present. i know back to you. great. now this house was built around a large indigenous tree. how did you incorporate the tree into the design of the house? you know, when we 1st came to this piece of land and the trees standing gloriously in the middle of off the stand. i'm not sure of the age, but it's very established and had a real presence on the sides and the youth was kind of a precious resource for us to design around. we use the tree as a kind of mock understand to determine like how to position the house. so you can see that this is the living room waiting a day to have the bedroom waiting. and we placed this living room where as

close to the tree as we could so as not to disrupt its roots and trump damage us. thank you so much. quick for your time. it is good to see sustainability taking center. stage. zanzibar, an occupational go just off the coast of pennsylvania is a power dies. those seeking and exotic and tropical escape, the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure, enjoy and know on safety. i mean all the way from 0 and this is mine said she's going to stay town is the heart of science, the best largest city. it's us and me and i keep the levels, nearly 2000000 residents. a famously bypass hospitable and musically gifted like city and then to maximally i claim, musician has been called a local tourism and control and bus about and today to 2nd asked to,

a peaceful and exotic setting that the boss is much visit destination. larry j is a good day in the unit 6, brad the jewels, inspiration from african cultures and nature. they pro with ties, tradition, and concepts and use of vintage had died techniques to re purpose local fabrics while the of cycling initiative health reduce waste. check this out. what do you imagine that this was made from trash? larry d, a session design, this is a regular customer to one of the treat is here in can someone to the biggest secondhand clothes markets in the capital, city of gunner, with about 50000 treatise, he usually purchases some secondhand clothes and 5 rigs. and we pep both of them into fashionable installed outfits for his mode. indeed, custom, is there anything behind you then they can hon. firebreak for our bron

5th of all is because um, as part of our bronte to us for like z, retail is so much about the environment. we can do this by using like, with fabrics we have in the environment. so they don't end up feeling our lines and whatever it is. so rise from so send this 5 rates from, i'll look on my kids, let me bring it home and then extend them out to the team. we then take them to our us as of who i see a list of this as his as a either from which enough iso molly or some ego and then be employed the hunting di skills on this fabrics. and then like we have proposed them into our artistic brand, tie 5 years gonna impulse an average of 6000 homes of 2nd hand clothing into the country on a monthly basis for its citizens. the secondhand clothes, locally known escal,

brittany, we mean dead white, someone's clothes, some of these clothes which of low quality this cottage. and this contributes to the enormous waste in landfills and what the forty's mine was service. and as the design of the brand, it is the fact that i'm able to make some sort of change in my immediate environments when it comes to wisdom management's also providing job opportunities for lots of people. the brand is move kind of inside by our various african cultures and need to so all of this elements us up to our design aesthetic the fab rates, we make, how we blame them with the resting fibrex, the use to us from our lookout, my kids. so this is supposed to pots a file story of preserving our guardian heritage and culture. larry had an at least live for flushing, growing up. i used to parts most of my tea sets with watch spring from my mother's

woodrow. she saw my passion for it and so she would always given me more of the experience. i think she understood where i was going to add some points. i sort of flab how much i live in because i had friends like people online requesting for what i was doing. and so that's supposed to advise me into focusing on with management by gets in with 5 rates includes from our downsizing that crass to like, plug them, transform them into new pieces for consumption. and then this piece end up going back to the task where, uh, where the with came from. so i just for the i prize. now the words with is mytrasia . mary jane believes in upside glen secondhand clothes, to help reduce waste in all communities. and the fashion production cycle unlocked . so as part of our 5th anniversary in st kitts institute,

we introduce the collection with smith. it's, i'll be well in my little cause i like this is because it's really for cause on our production process is us embry and that's to make the world a better place considering all of this ways. we talk lynn as a brand, and it also teaches us to be very quiet, shows us consumers whenever it comes to fashion, that's always i will lose sure. from the time somebody starts until they are considered and then then it goes to from the time you start to on. so the middle part and then now why we have reached the go see if i guess i'm just reading local the and himself, what is the word that is done? and just the size of his creativity. i want to have them put things together and i really, really proud of him for the yeah, 5. so a lot is that to, you know why we started working with piece of clothes. i do see that 5 so that maybe on monday i miss you. i'll do my best to provide what you did. yeah.
