Who:
Tarkett sponsored: Philip Fimmano, partner at trend forecasting studio Edelkoort Inc.
What:
For too long, we have ruthlessly consumed our Earth’s assets and abused its resources. Forests become furniture, oceans are polluted and minerals are over-mined. For future generations, it is crucial to consider a new approach: a transformation from over-consumption towards sustainable development that is in harmony with nature, with increased respect for our environment and for each other.
Philip Fimmano, partner at trend forecasting studio Edelkoort Inc., will lead a thought-provoking presentation on how the reclamation and repurposing of waste can not only reduce environmental impacts, but also spark innovation in textiles, fashion, building materials and design.
