Lea and Perrins designs for brief

Lea and Perrins (Research)

http://www.heinz.co.uk/sauce-partners/lea--perrins

"Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce was first created by the Worcester chemists John Wheeley Lea and William Henry Perrins. They devised the recipe in the 1830's when Lord Sandys - a nobleman of the area - was eager to recreate an exciting taste he had acquired on his travels to Bengal.

When Lea & Perrins was first created, it wasn't to their liking and was set aside and forgotten about. It wasn't until the barrels were rediscovered many months later that the taste had mellowed into what we know and love as Worcestershire Sauces. To this day, the ingredients are allowed to 'mature' for 18 months before being blended and bottled in Worcester. Only a lucky few know the exact recipe.

 Lea & Perrins Special Edition is extra matured for a fuller flavour, for all those that really love the taste of the original."

CAT visit feedback

After spending time at the Centre of Alternative Technology it had a curd to me that not all the building can be 'green'. When having the presentation from Jo the issue when building the WISE structure is to make the construction accessible to make for everyone and this in my opinion makes it less eco and less sustainable. However the resources that they have are a lot of slate and textures such as cork that they use for insulation and the wool and fibre glass. The idea of constructing one of their circular buildings out of just compressed earth has also shown the innovatory sensation they have brought to this place.

Around the sight consists of designs that they are being re-used in many ways. Take a gander at the photos and one of the inspiring ideas is the seat that rises up and down that is linked to the wind turbine. In your opinion that could not be relevant to the whole eco feel as it is not practical however this is still entertaining to the visitors. The other innovating idea that inspired me was one of the workers making beautiful things out of wood. The idea that you use your surroundings and make something new is totally what i consider as being ecological.

sketches for task 3

IDEA 1

• The use of cardboard cut around the shape of the shoe/s. 

IDEA 2

IDEA 3

• A good example of this is woven baskets made out of newspaper.

• Using a scarf to wrap the shoes entails that both products will be used over again rather than discarding the packaging. This gives the packaging a secondary form.
