How to Dress and Undress your Home

Before the large-scale use of fossil fuels, removable textile layers kept homes warm in winter and cool in summer.

LOW←TECH MAGAZINE

BRUSSELS — BOOK LAUNCH — 29.4

→ How to make books more sustainable? During this evening, Low-tech Magazine will present our "Compressed Book Edition", this time in Brussels, at Architecture Curating Practice's gallery.

→ Inspired by the image compression on its solar-powered website, Low-tech Magazine squeezed the article catalog of their three-volume chronological book series into just one book. Compressing the content — an editorial and design choice — produces a larger reduction in resource use than printing on recycled paper could ever do.

🕰 18:30 Doors open
19:00 Book presentation and introduction of Low-tech Magazine
19:45 Q&A
20:00 Book sale / snacks & drinks / discussion

📌 Architecture curating practice,
et al. architect-run space
37 Rue des Tanneurs / Huidevettersstraat 137
1000 Brussels

(talk will be held in english)
Poster by our current intern Hugo Lopez

How to Escape From the Iron Age?

We cannot lower carbon emissions if we keep producing steel with fossil fuels.

@vagrantc Another commment from the author #krisdedecker : There is another reason why the guide does not focus on li-ion. Lead-acid batteries are routinely recycled, li-ion batteries are not. They are also more risky than lead-acid batteries. You have heard the stories of electric scooters going up in flames for no reason: the same could happen to your solar system. Lead-acid is 150 years old and heavy, but for stationary uses they remain the best option, although I understand that people have a hard time swallowing that.
