Designers + Makers: Sign-Up for a New Masterclass on Working With Waste
Sign-up for Katie Treggiden's masterclass on designing + making with waste and return to a sense of pride in what you do!
Our own editor-at-large and writer behind the Circular by Design column (as well as author and podcaster), Katie Treggiden, recently announced her new venture ? Waste: A Masterclass. The 12-week program was conceived to inspire, educate and empower designer-makers to create circular products from waste.
Treggiden became a craft and design journalist in 2010, focusing on creativity as an agent for social change. Along the way she’s written five books, established an award-winning blog and an independent magazine while regularly contributing to publications. But it was while earning her recent master?s degree in the History of Design at the University of Oxford that she set an informal question to guide her research: Can craft save the world" It breaks my heart to see designer-makers ? who used to have a real sense of pride about what they do ? feeling guilty about putting yet more ‘stuff’ into the world and carrying the weight of responsibility for sustainability like a heavy burden. I want to see them engage with the circular economy with a sense of playfulness, curiosity and experimentation and regain their pride in making. That’s what this course sets out to do and, judging by the beta run, what it seems to be achieving.
