We believe the way in which we have captured the water task in our exhibition resonates. We are therefor very happy to be able to bring the IABR—DOWN TO EARTH: WATERSCHOOL M4H+ exhibition to the Dutch Design Week. WaterSchool is present on two locations: at Atelier NL and the Embassy of Water in Designhuis. For the exact locations scroll down.
WATERSCHOOL M4H+ investigates how a range of resources can contribute to building a sustainable and circular learning environment, in order to meet the water challenge and ensure an optimized ecological footprint for the 6,300 future residents of Merwe-Vierhavens M4H+. It illustrates what this new living and working environment could look like when its development is guided by a resource use that allows for the just interaction between all organisms, communities, and their environment.
The exhibition IABR—DOWN TO EARTH: WATERSCHOOL M4H+ shows work of over 30 selected designers, architects and artists and a Waterschool (digital) library addressing the themes and collecting the results of the research by design into those resources that can serve as (building) materials and/or food while having a responsible relationship to water use.
The installation INDIRECT INVISIBLE WATER, made by Studio Makkink & Bey, Studio Corvers and Carla Herrewijnen for WaterSchool is to raise our awareness of our huge water footprint and the ways we can reduce it.
