A morning at
@tippingpointeast — thrilled to have been invited by
@_zetteler_ to visit.
Rows of salvaged timber, offcuts, fragments — materials held in suspension between past and future use.
Circularity is often spoken about at a distance, as a strategy or ambition. But here, it becomes tangible. It’s in the sorting, the storing, the quiet logistics of keeping materials in circulation.
Opportunities to source from places like this begin to reshape the process. They invite different questions early on — what is already available, what can be adapted, what stories are we continuing rather than starting from scratch?
They also open architecture up to a wider network of people and practices. Reuse isn’t a solitary act — it relies on shared systems, collective effort, and spaces like this that hold and redistribute value.
A small shift in approach, but one that carries through the entire project.
