Abstract
Today Cuba is a country with material needs, anyway; we have the project to grow up economically, even from the Industrial sphere. Our country is a big place full of very well prepared people ready to solve problems ingeniously, just using the minimum of resources. Is not a new for the world to find attractive solutions related to functional and usable daily objects using reused or recycled materials. But it?s not correct that we usual-ly don?t appreciate this kind of solutions. Design is the responsible profession for make easier and optimize the artificial life of the society, is the first point to get the acceptation of this products that maybe don?t come from the industry but have a high use and functional value, but most of all: environmental. Is obvious, the need of protection of our blue planet, but the conscience is not enough... In this work you can find the process since conception to mass socialization of solution that propose a sustainable view to the artificial environment of Cuba. Serving as a way: Canal Habana and thanks to a valuable group of students, more than 30 solutions are going inside Cuban homes with excellent results that we share here.
