Royal College of Art graduate
Ariane Prin caught our attention at
Show RCA last week by exhibiting pencils made from residue collected from inside the school.

Called From Here For Here, the highly sustainable project aims to find new uses for waste, and make a product from it that will suit the needs of the place from where the waste was collected.
