 Transforming The Old Into Gold

With the simple motto to “Recycle, Reduce, Reuse” KakiDIY have been doing just that, through their movement of DIY enthusiasts. Together, they have greatly reduced waste by reusing broken items around them, either by repairing them or making it into something new.  Celebrating their 7th anniversary this July, we catch up with Johnson Lam, the Founder of KakiDIY and KakiRepair, to discuss the growth and impact of this grassroots fixer-upper group.
