bhutan and driving the action into outer boswell's production of could choose. and we visit the house in pamplona which has earned itself the title thanks to its award winning and an imbalanced concrete design. since 2007 berlin fashion week has taken place twice a year in january and july and over the years it's earned a reputation as a great place for young designers to earn their stripes but young designers are by definition tapping into the mentality and aesthetics of millennial and even gen says which means that sustainability in the industry has grown radically in importance and that's where the neighbor new trade show plays a major role. sustainability can be pretty sure some of the environmentally friendly fashions under splay or even runway ready sustainable style has moved on from the crunchy granola of the past that the new and let the

berlin trade figure for a sustainable fashion the focus is on we're building and basics the berlin label blue blood sisters has a sacrifice style in their pursuit of more ecological fashion but changing the industry will take time. of course everything goes step by step initially people would say to us your clothes we have your trade but you're not using organic cotton many factoring is slowly catching up we've been working with manufacturers in india and china and are also trying to get them to implement fair working conditions you can't expect them to immediately be able to produce arcana cotton. a dutch jeans maker is taking a different route with my jeans you don't buy the jeans you rent them for 7 euro 50 a month if you return them within a year the jeans are shredded and then recycled. imagine as
10:47 pm
we make new jeans out of all jeans we shred the origins to make yarn i combine with new organic cotton to make the fabric for our new jeans and. recycling is the sustainability trend of the new not all balls turned into new. han bangs vigen shoes using renewable materials like cork orme to make the big fat souls of these punks gough and techno kloppers recycled plastic these spanish sneakers will run new $200.00 euro's sustainability doesn't come cheap studies oh ever so that fully a 3rd of all purchased clothes are of never even worn so maybe the solution is to buy a few were more expensive clothes so it last longer and scott rocks pro has join me in the studio to talk more about sustainable fashion were welcome scott

dana will fashion an expression that for me seems the little bit like an oxymoron because i mean the face it the fashion industry is one of the most polluting industries on the planet so what exactly does this new new to trade fair intent to do well in it is look gaint going to this nice which is still very small d. shove those sustainable fashion or green fashion and what they trying to show the industry is that it is possible to produce clothes and reduced really high end fashion in the sustainable environmentally friendly way and those we just saw where the main things the doing is a using a recycled materials to make to make their clothes so is a couple examples there on in the piece i'm new at you know we saw a couple of really interesting oh ways of using new resources up these shoes for example here are partly made from algae gather from the osho one of the consequence of i'ma changes of we have huge algebra duction becomes a cheek material to use and sheep resource on it use these these of boots here are from recycled plastic which is also gathered from the ocean actually waste plastic
10:49 pm
that was thrown in the ocean a spanish company you you covers at makes these boots makes jackets and and bags out of the recycle plastic a miss is one of my faith it's a clothing company they make these coffee lover t. shirts and the t. shirts themselves i made from a waste product that's produced when coffee is manufactured so he's a examples of trying to use resources at least that are usually waste resources and recycling is always something a bit more environmentally friendly looks very good antidote and very innovative but lets you know face that fashion is really the end to system sustainability isn't it i mean the whole business model is definitely built on our throwaway culture i mean just think of the fact that many fashion houses have $2.00 to $3.00 to $4.00 collections a year is is. the initiative like this just really sort of greenwashing or window dressing yeah i think you could make that argument definitely i mean the fashion industry at the moment when they talk about sustainable fashion basically using it as a way just to sell more clothes and that maybe is the source of the problem you mention
10:50 pm
collections that it's actually even more than just you know 2 collections your summer winter now the average in europe is 5 year sorrow one of the biggest holding labels in europe has 24 collections a year that really doesn't look like sustainable for the nano just quickly berlin fashion week has had a pretty hard time keeping up with its other rivals paris and london is is this going to be its stick for the future sort of the sustainability label i think that's probably one of the reasons why they're getting so hard behind the sustainability so if they can have a certain relevance but. it's a tiny portion of fashionista at the moment is growing rapidly and of course the issue isn't going to go away so i think. it is on the right track and then you're back by saying we're going to get behind green fashion and try to make the thing whether or not that is a real impact on the c o 2 emissions of the fashion industry remains to be seen and we do have to start somewhere don't waste policy of never throwing anything out she's meeting with the yeah you can just you know just throw the old stuff where in the old stuff joining me it's got roxboro. well traditionally the conductor of an orchestra was always
10:51 pm
a man and typically with a very strong personality but a new generation off female conductors has taken up the baton and one of the leading names here in europe is they a stone and christina posco are getting full points for strength herself she is the 1st woman ever to win the german conductors award in 2013 and she's recently started as music director of basel where we were able to catch up with her. maestro christina pasco conducting jack chinese opera in rehearsal ahead of the premier. the. commission accounts beloved by women is a very special opera to me because it was the 1st one i ever conducted. the young. that's the part was the fun. if you were ok once more
10:52 pm
like this because i'm not and this pastor says she's had to go through a process over the years of finding her own conducting style. 6 through a human about this i used to think you needed to have a special character to be a conductor and to conduct properly in the sense of going and of course there are certain things you need to have and to learn but in the end the most important thing is what happens inside me of my relationship with myself so to speak to see it and my relationship to the score. and that's the basis for everything. that the boss is. it's gradually becoming more common for orchestras to be led by women after centuries of resistance to letting them real the conductor's baton. but there are still those who wonder is that research the musical experience. so must be in my thinking there's no such thing as a feminine interpretation. music and art in general needs
10:53 pm
a human being and many human beings have both elements in them there are certainly female conductors whose style is more stereo typically masculine than that if their male colleagues i mean side is very well developed and i need to work more on my feminine side thing we can think that. there's no male white man went away because the. going to get. noticed that. morrissey not pasco grew up in a stone as the daughter of 2 professional athletes minus the important 1st impulse towards music came from my grandfather he couldn't read music but he was fantastic at improvising on the piano and i wanted to do that too. so i decided i wanted to go to music school and i studied piano starting at age 6 or 7 but i didn't have a goal back then of becoming a conductor again you know that just turned out that way again.
10:54 pm
christina pasco may not have deliberately started down the path to conducting the new music director of the tate out of basel is certainly turning it into a brilliant career. over the options of protein we had to northern spain to pump low in fact long famous for the running of the bulls at the san fran mean festival every july but in a quiet almost rural suburb the house in pamplona as it's known is famous for its utter simplicity and it's also a study in the possibilities with concrete and it needs a visit to appreciate its split level harmonizing with steep topography. usually when people think of the city of pamplona northern spain they think of its famous historic old town but there's a new landmark located in the pump on a suburb this massive concrete building was designed by architect. parents.

in pamplona in 2005. they're currently working on a new building for the city. northwestern spain the special challenge was to make a modern design that blends into the old town. location was also an important factor for the concrete house. the great source of inspiration for all our works is the location. that's why in this case we designed the upper portion of the structure as a thin concrete shelf people respond which fits in perfectly with the local topography. the architects also use the slope to divide the structure into 2 functional areas the upper one includes the living room and the kitchen the lower. kid i am. sick closest place to help just humans and
