Why is separating waste important…and what does it have to do with architecture?

Archikids: Why is separating waste important… and what does it have to do with architecture?

Sat 10.11., 15 – 17h

Most people are familiar with those moments of not knowing which bin to put their rubbish in: where do receipts go, and what about pizza boxes? When it comes to construction site waste, this becomes even more complicated. In this workshop, Andreas Lehner from the Vienna waste incineration plant explains what happens to our rubbish and how we can protect the environment together by separating our waste correctly. We practise separating and sorting using everyday examples. We also look at upcycling to see if we can build something from rubbish, such as a garden in a jar or a lantern.
