ScribeMedia recently recommended Lot-Ek to us. In the video on their website, which is from Postopolis, Lot-Ek founders Ada Tolla and Giuseppe Lignano describe how Lot-Ek recycles industrial shipping containers, using them as raw materials for architecture. As ScribeMedia notes, it’s important to recognize that while we at Groundswell find this process appealing for the reuse of old materials, Lot-Ek is in it for the creative process, not to save the earth.
The video covers three projects that Lot-Ek is currently working on, ranging from industrial to residential spaces, and the founders raise some interesting questions spurred by the nature of their work. Well worth the watch!
