PROJECT BACKGROUND

“Re . . .” was inspired from the experience of the designers during the site visits. It is well-known that plastic pollution is a global issue. Unfortunately, awareness is still a key challenge. I think we can tackle the problem through design. Following the keywords of reuse, renew, regenerate, and return, this project proposes that the Stanley Dragon Boat Association to work with a local NGO in creating a venue for raising sustainable awareness through community involvement. The main idea is that users would participate in the collection and repurposing process that generate pride amongst the people in being members of the sustainable community.
