Kierstin’s message – What’s the colour of sustainability? Hint: More than green. – strikes a chord with the Compost Modern community. Check out Dwell Magazine’s Review of the conference also Core77′s article – What’s your sustainability story?
The folks from At Home with Growing Old (AHWGO) were listening too:
According to Kierstin De West, principle of CI and creator of The Shift Report, community connections are first among our values. The Shift Report is a body of market research revealing what our values are as a culture when it comes to sustainability. To boot, as consumers, we are still foremost concerned with what is built to last, rather than what is necessarily “green” or “local,” although purchasing a local product appears to be more important to us as a nation than purchasing an organic product.
AHWGO is an online discussion forum to promote design solutions for the challenges of an aging society. Their goal is to promote an interdisciplinary dialogue among experts, thinkers, activists and designers on the topic of aging.
Nice to meet you.
