Amedeo Oddo – Averse
Averse is a rainwater collector designed to support urban community gardens that use permaculture principles to promote food self-sufficiency amid climate emergencies and resource scarcity, reducing dependence on industrial systems. Permaculture emphasizes self-sufficiency and sustainable ecosystems, focusing on cycles and waste reduction. Optimizing water use is crucial, especially as droughts become more frequent. Rainwater, being softer and less calcareous, benefits plants during dry periods and reduces the need for drinking water for irrigation. This rainwater collector, with a capacity of 600 liters, supports a 120m² garden for a week without rain. It's designed with simple manufacturing techniques, using only wood and metal to eliminate microplastics and pollutants.
