Our Environmental Design Proposal

Our environmental design proposal is to create a Recycle Tree. Each member in our group is going to look around their living spaces and find recyclable items from their daily lives that come from trees (items such as paper, cardboard, wood, etc…) We will then as a group, go into the forest at Oaks path and select a tree that we all agree is ideal to arrange our recyclable objects on. We plan to use a variety of recyclables and display them in an innovative and aesthetically pleasing way. We picked Oaks path because multitudes of students walk this path everyday and we want our design to be accessible to everyone before we take it down. We plan to wait for a clear day when the weather and lighting (to take pictures) will be perfect. Our visual statement is about the importance of preserving the environment by recycling and the way that recycling creates a “circle of life” because all the things we decorate the tree with are things that have actually come from nature.
