Plastic <EMERGENCY> Architecture explores an architecture of circular cycles related to recycled plastics. With open source technologies (such as the Precious Plastic machines) and digital fabrication tools, the project encourages recycling, giving these recycled plastics new value by generating new construction materials, for diverse applications. The broader impact of the project is targeted at citizens, both in the material and design processes, customizing design outputs. This creates a platform of awareness as well as sharing knowledge hence safeguarding the environment through plastic aggregation, otherwise risking deterioration to microplastics, this finally generating social and environmental capital, within a circular economic model.
