GOING GREEN IN 2010

Green Design is a growing trend within many fields of design. It is defined as the art of designing physical objects to comply with the principles of economic, social, & ecological sustain-ability. The essential aim of sustainable design is to produce places, products & services in a way that reduces the use of non-renewable resources and minimizes the impact on the environment.

Principles of Green Design:

Low-impact materials which are non-toxic, sustainably produced or recycled and require little energy to process

Energy efficient by using manufacturing processes to produce products which require less energy

Longer-lasting and better-functioning products need to be replaced less frequently, reducing the impacts of producing replacements

Products, processes, and systems should be designed for reuse and recycling in a commercial afterlife
