Designing for Sustainability

In the past years, "festival tent" culture has become a widening issue of non-biodegradable waste in which tens of thousands of synthetic tents are incinerated or thrown into landfills each year. This project addresses this growing social issue through sustainability and will experiment with designing a recyclable alternative.
