EXTRACT
Arising from the detrimental ecological effects of complacency towards the availability of non-renewable resources and our irreversible waste habits, EXTRACT explores the need for sustainable practice in a global city like Sydney.
Whilst there are some sustainable initiatives in place, such as basic recycling programs, there is a greater need for education on sustainable practices and the impact of lax attitudes towards informed and responsible ecological practice. Focusing on completely sustainable products from the beginning of their life cycle to the end in the design phase sees EXTRACT emerge as a site defined by and designed by sustainable practice.
With a multipurpose exhibition hall, auditorium, workshops, research library and bar, EXTRACT seeks to invite the community to engage with designers, local projects and sustainable research innovations on the iconic Goat Island in Sydney Harbour.
