Can you believe the security guards sit in this little booth?

Cubby is playful and endearing, but not much of a cuddler. She is always in “kitten mode” zooming here and there, wadding up the floor blanket and chasing after toys. Cubby is good with other cats and around dogs. She has not been around children much and might be a better choice for older, calm children. Cubby has been with us since 9/21/2008.

Some of the kids of Boeung Kak Lake have made a cubby out of an abandoned digger, one used to tear down their homes.

 

Controversially, this land was sold by the Cambodian Government to a Chinese corporation that wanted to develop this prime land. It wasn't, however, the government's land to sell, and mass evictions have been forced on the people who used to live in houses on this land, and the lake has been filled in.

 

Some 200,000 residents of the lake were originally given eviction notices in 2010, with their compensation offers around $8,000 to $15,000 USD. While this is a lot of money in Cambodia, it is not nearly enough to compensate a family for losing their home, and then having to build another one.

 

I spoke to a resident today who is one of many refusing to leave, who has so far managed to hold on to her home. She was offered $15,000 to leave her home, a home which (disregarding it's imminent demolition due to the lake development) would have been worth around $160,000. Furthermore, land in Phnom Penh is a commodity and the chances of the many residents of Boeung Kak being able to find replacement homes or vacant land within Phnom Penh is scarce. This would mean moving to the outskirts of the city, requiring long commutes to work, or in most cases having no access to work at all, as much of this community is very poor and relies on their city location to sell goods on the street or collect rubbish to earn a small living.

 

The eviction of the Boeung Kak Lake residents is not only illegal it is compounding an already huge problem of homelessness and over-crowded slums. When residents refuse to move, military force is used, and machines are simply brought in to destroy the homes.

 

In May 2012 15 women, residents of the lake, peacefully protested their eviction. They were arrested and sentenced to 2 years prison 2 days later without access to defense lawyers and with no evidence being presented to the court. On Wednesday the 27th of June 2012 there was a peaceful protest to the imprisonment of these women, held outside the Royal Palace in a busy area of Phnom Penh. The protest attracted the attention of foreign agencies such as Amnesty International and the United Nations, and because of this attention, the women's sentances were reduced to time already served.

 

This small victory has given the residents remaining in Boeung Kak Lake renewed hope, though the chances of them keeping their homes in the long run (once the international attention is focused elsewhere) are slim.

i like photos of work spaces. this was in a garage/workshop in king salmon, ak.

marty's brainchild, also was key to our success in birmingham.

 

if you left your stuff sitting around, someone would stick it in your cubby. and if you couldn't find something, it was likely to be in your cubby: awesome!

 

somehow i forgot to take a picture of the finished product.

Nico investigates our new IKEA EXPEDIT unit.

Dirk van der Kooij experiments with recycled plastic from discarded household fridges to create sustainable products.

The irregular beauty of recycled plastic is expressed in this playful chair, made using a self-built plastic-extruding robot that is programmed to squeeze out layers of thick tubes of recycled plastic to form the shape of the chair.

Waste Age: What can design do?

(October 2021 – February 2022)

 

We all know waste is a big problem. So how are we going to fix it?

A new generation of designers is rethinking our relationship to everyday things. From fashion to food, electronics to construction, even packaging - finding the lost value in our trash and imagining a future of clean materials and a circular economy could point the way out of the Waste Age.

Explore major new exhibits that capture the devastating impact of waste including a large-scale art installation by Ibrahim Mahama made from e-waste in Ghana.

The exhibition showcases some of the visionary designers who are reinventing our relationship with waste, including Formafantasma, Stella McCartney, The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, Lacaton & Vassal, Fernando Laposse, Bethany Williams, Phoebe English and Natsai Audrey Chieza.

'We must face the problem of waste – we can no longer ignore what happens to things when we get rid of them. Instead of thinking of objects as things that have an end life, they can have many lives. This is not just an exhibition it is a campaign, and we all have an active part in our future.' Gemma Curtin, Curator.
