Thomas Thwaites: How I built a toaster — from scratch
Posted on January 26, 2011 in Off Topic | 1 Comment
It takes an entire civilization to build a toaster. Designer Thomas Thwaites found out the hard way, by attempting to build one from scratch: mining ore for steel, deriving plastic from oil … it’s frankly amazing he got as far as he got. A parable of our interconnected society, for designers and consumers alike.
