ACL will represent Portugal in Norway’s largest architecture and interior design event
VILA NOVA DE FAMALICÃO, Portugal, September 27, 2021 / PRNewswire / – Wooden houses made from recycled newspapers? Yes, it does exist and has a Norwegian signature.
And what about the animal blood wasted in the global consumption of tons of meat? There are those who use it to make bricks. Indeed. Nowadays nothing is wasted with creativity and technology. “Waste and architecture” is the fascinating theme of [email protected] Oslo 2021, a subject that the Portuguese company A Cimenteira do Louro (ACL) knows so well and which will demonstrate it, in this edition, with its concrete-based products and coatings.
Between September 29 and 30, [email protected] ([email protected]) makes the Norwegian landscape its home with a promising first edition and a fundamental theme for the present and the future of spaces. Embracing the old and renewing it, valuing what remains of a process of production and use, are simple ways of explaining this revolutionary movement which intelligently bypasses the depletion of natural resources. From stand no. 76, ACL will materialize this ecological manifesto with its concrete-based coverings and floors, a 100% sustainable material that is transformed into sophisticated collections of products with great technical performance.
For those who still think that only paper, cellulose or wood are renewable materials, it is because they do not follow this new trend, driven by sustainability and creativity, which explores the materials that put an end to to the life cycle in the linear economy system. “Waste is a gift that must be freed from its ‘pejorative stigma’,” said the French intellectual, Georges Bataille, in the first half of the 20th century, and now, in this 21st century, its desired premise is materializing.
Contemporary architects and designers are exploring these exciting new materials made of things that normally are seen in a landfill. They play a decisive role in this change, because it is they who choose the materials and products with which they work and define the ecological relationship between people and their surrounding spaces.
In addition to these professionals, companies that sell products can also positively contribute to this movement. The good example ACL will be presented at the next Architect @ Work Oslo with its Design and Nature collections, with the promise to inspire professionals to choose the creative and sustainable way of reusing materials.
