Eco Factor: Sustainable hotel created by recycling inorganic waste.
Everyone wants to holiday along unruffled beaches and experience the serene tranquility along world’s some of the best beaches, but would not want to know or talk about the grim reality of ocean pollution. As a sign of the times we are living in and also atop a big garbage heap, artist HA Schult has designed a trash hotel in Rome with an aim to highlight the problem of trash that litters our beaches we love to spend our time on.
Called Corona Save the Beach Hotel the unusual accommodation with its ragtag looks is made out of inorganic waste — 12 tons for the walls alone — and includes three rooms, two baths and an assortment of garbage, such as construction material, cans, car parts, socks and soccer balls, all of which was collected on beaches in Europe. Inaugurated by Danish supermodel Helena Christensen, the hotel isn’t forever and completes its five-day run today, leaving the ugly truth behind that we are in the trash time.
