Creating Sustainable Patterns – One Community Weekly Progress Update #275

Open source and do-it-yourself replicable sustainability components make creating sustainable patterns and living sustainably easier and more affordable. We think they can also be designed to be more attractive than most traditional designs. One Community is creating them to cover foodenergyhousingeducationfor-profit and non-profit economic designsocial architecturefulfilled livingglobal stewardship practices, and more as a replicable path to global sustainability.
