Sustainable Design Concepts
Description
Sustainable design considers the environmental effect of a project from the first sketch. These fourteen PDF lessons begin with its foundations and the environmental knowledge designers need, then set out principles of eco-friendly design.
You read about bio-inspired approaches, resilience, health and well-being, and integrative design processes. Further lessons apply the ideas at different scales, from cities to buildings to the human scale, and cover materials, life cycle assessment methods and sustainable design frameworks. The final lesson considers your role in encouraging change. Checklists and exercises are included. Afterwards you can assess a design project against sustainability principles and ask better questions about materials and impact.
Who it is for: designers and students who want to bring sustainability into their work.
