Waste Atlas

As designers, wouldn't it be amazing to visualize what unexplored, readily accessible, cheap, local materials there are to work with? Through this open-source database we're trying to highlight the potential of local waste as new material. We want to map the waste and classify it so that it finds a home; so that we start blurring the lines of what waste truly is.
