 +As I've  mentioned in the context I have scanned via the inflatables three design principles; 
 +  * //sustainability//   I wonder if sustainability is a word that empower us...
 +The word itself is putting a heavy load on our shoulders, and conventionaly it focusses on what not to do. It can paralyze us, or pushes our guild buttons; we must shrink our presence, our systems, our activities. So it stops our creativity. But we are part of nature to! Something sustains itself, when its made with real care and when its patterns are deeply connected to ones own experiences then we like to look after it. Sustainability also recalls the idea of preserving, but one has to keep in perspective that all stuff is build to die. So maybe what empowers us more is to think in biolife cycles. And we don’t have to be perfect right now and all these biodegradable materials are not all available now, but as long there is a direction and you can set your goal for 20 years,
