When I think of aesthetics, the first thing in my mind is the appearance/look of something. For me this is a visual experience. Now when we connect aesthetics to sustainability, I understand that as a change in the way of creating a design for a certain product. Sustainability means working together with my environment - not against it. I take the items it is offering me and create something new out of it. | When I think of aesthetics, the first thing in my mind is the appearance/look of something.

I am highly interested in fashion and the sustainable way of creating/purchasing clothes. For me it can be a way of showing personality in a visual appearance. While I researched about this topic I stumbled upon a certain culture in the fashion industry - "thrifting". It is about reusing "old" or thrown-away clothes to make some new ones or even other things out of them. | I am highly interested in fashion and the sustainable way of creating/purchasing clothes.
