SUMMARY OF THE PROJECT

Nowadays, One of the most important things is not wasting anything. Renewing everything that
is old...

Unfortunately, with the developing technology, the mindset that gives priority to consumption
rather than producing comes into view. According to the data we gathered in the school, 85% of
the children think that they can reach everything by buying. As part of the project, we want to
ensure that children understand that it is enjoyable not only to consume but also to produce
something.

In addition to these, we aim to improve children's imagination, develop design oriented

problem-solving skills, and help them to realize the awareness about that hand work is valuable
by giving many objects new life we do not use in our houses. We will reach larger audience by
holding an exhibition.

GOALS
