Joost Bakker is the poster boy for zero-waste living. The florist-turned-activist wants to save the world and that includes inspiring us all to build our homes sustainably. Joost is the man behind the world famous and attention-grabbing installations such as the Future Food System House in Fed Square. He takes Joh on a tour of his own home a place he built himself using reclaimed and eco-friendly materials. But his next building project, his mum’s new home, will take his eco-ideas to the next level. With Joost’s concepts, we don’t have to be anxious about the future, we just have to be proactive.
