Chinese New Year is around the corner, everyone is planning to do a general cleaning before the new year to sending off the old and welcoming the new. Hold on, let's stop and think! Have you ever thought that we can actually upcycle some of our unwanted items by transforming them into interesting gadgets? In our Taster Workshops, participants were guided by the instructor "Eco-Dad" Norman, using recycled wood materials to create playful and environmentally friendly items such as pull-back boats, one-string guitars, wind turbines. Integrating environmentally friendly design and transformation into daily life is something we can all achieve.
