Summary

Sustainability is an increasingly vital subject for all kinds of designers, whether they work in industrial design, graphic design or architecture. This book clearly explains the key issues and debates to allow students and practitioners to adapt and integrate them into their own working practices.Design for Sustainable Changeexplores how design thinking and design-led entrepreneurship can address the sustainability agenda. It examines how the processes of design provide methodologies for driving sustainable change in businesses, organizations and society more generally. Throughout the book, Anne Chick and Paul Micklethwaite present debates around design and sustainability and the integration of the two. In-depth international case studies and interviews put the theories discussed into a real-world context.
