This is an intriguing TEDtalk by Dan Phillips, a designer and builder from Texas, exploring why we are prediposed to creating waste in the building industry and what he is doing about it. A one man army who rejoices in the rejected materials of others. A guy that looks like he’s at home whittling on the porch, quotes Jean Paul Sartre and challenges us about why we insist on wearing matching shoes.
A great exploration of the philosphical arguments behind earthships and the evil of commodity housing.
