DesignTalks Paper Cuts Through Sustainable DesignDesignTalks, the online community and discussion forum for UK design and manufacturing businesses, has released a new whitepaper that cuts through the issues surrounding design and sustainability and delivers clear advice to manufacturers about how design can be used to shape both greener products and more sustainable working practices.
Design and sustainability - how making a difference through design also makes good business sense is the second in a series of DesignTalks whitepapers, and includes expert commentary and examples of companies that have tackled sustainability head-on - and are prospering as a result.
"A key issue is for product designers to be exposed to applied sustainable thinking, and at present this provision is only patchy among the global design curriculum," says Professor Martin Charter of the Centre of Sustainable Design (CfSD).
"Within the UK, design organisations need to take a committed strategic position on sustainability."
