HÅNDVÆRK bookazine - transformation (uk edition)

HÅNDVÆRK bookazine 15, on the theme of transformation.
Our language is currently expanding, as it absorbs new words and concepts, and familiar words take on new meanings. Circular, regenerative, downcycling, upcycling, to mention just a few. What they have in common is an attempt to capture a movement, something that is changing – or has already transformed – from earlier understandings to a more contemporary one shaped by resource, biodiversity and climate crises and the need to find new solutions. 
This is both interesting and complex – because what do the words actually mean?If we speak of agriculture, the term ‘regenerative’ is only really meaningful in connection with ‘organic’ – otherwise, it may still involve the use of pesticides.If we use ‘regenerative’ about anything that doesn’t come from nature, you should be sceptical, because the only thing that can ever truly regenerate is the planet’s ecosystems.
‘I see CIRCULARITY as the general law – the law of ecology – as we mimic the way nature functions: an existing system in which anything that is created – including anything we create – has an intrinsic life that is TRANSFORMED and becomes something else.’ Designer Pil Bredahl, in the article THREADED WITH THE WORLD
