There’s no doubt that Ezra Pound’s slogan, “Make it New”, sparked the fire that charged modernist to break from the conventions of the Victorian Age.

The movement cemented in practicality and function is responsible for some of our most notable achievements, like the industrialization of our urban cities to the Internet. However, it’s extension into our agricultural practices and exploitation of our natural resources is where we should have drawn the line. Luckily, modernism is dead, but there’s no reason grieve. Instead, focus your attention on the next wave of ecological designers who have inherited the job of reshaping the future “ism”.

A daunting task? Absolutely, but with their sensitivity towards nature, today’s eco-designers are ushering in a new era, the theme of which is “Make it Last”.

Enter the gang at Solution Era. They’re French Canadian, optimistic and fast with a blueprint. Their 2015 breakthrough project The Greenhouse of the Future, produced by filmmaker Curt Close, blended upcycled material such as used tires and glass bottles with passive solar energy to create a greenhouse. Francis Gendron, the founder of Solution Era, remarks on his motivation to find a remedy to our dependence on the current food system.

“I believe in the creation of noble and ethical abundance, says Gendron. Our design was conceived and engineered to create a microclimate which can produce an abundant food supply while using an absolute minimum of energy”.

The next venture has lead Francais to join forces with renowned and award-winning engineer Luc Muyldermans. Their mission: create a passive solar greenhouse that is designed to be adjacent to an existing or planned house. What are they calling it?

The course features an interactive component that will allow users to receive support from the online safe team while in the process of setting up their greenhouse. Blueprints are also available for those who prefer to delegate the task to a local carpenter. The Solution Era’s trademark DIY style format makes this concept shine as it strives domesticate the idea of food abundance.

“At this time, our food travels thousands of kilometers before meeting our mouths. It is great to have access to exotic products, but in the case of a technologic or economic crisis, it is possible that we will no longer have access to any, ” says Gendron.

The “eat local” craze isn’t the only factor driving the desire for food autonomy. A recent study from Consumer Reports shows that 72% of consumers in the United States are avoiding genetically engineered ingredients when shopping.

“With this online course, I really wish that with growing food all year-round, even in cold climate, we will all realize that we have more time to accomplish more and create a better future. »
