Join us on October 17th at the pavilion for “Community Connections: Sustainability and Bio Design.” Itamar Lilienthal, founder of Casa Tamarindo, will demonstrate how his design house in Valle de Guadalupe, Mexico, transforms waste like seaweed, beer, and plastics into innovative art and architecture. He’ll also discuss Casa Tamarindo’s cross-border projects that redefine contemporary design and vernacular culture.
ReCREA, a collaboration between ASF, TRNERR, Waste for Life, and Centro de Comunidad Tecolote, will showcase their community-based waste upcycling program. Focused on Los Laureles Canyon and Colonia Tecolote, ReCREA aims to enhance local economies and ecological health by turning plastic waste into valuable resources and fostering sustainable businesses. This event explores innovative practices that address environmental challenges and promote sustainability.
