Curated by ACT

Sustainable design is a philosophy of developing products in line with social, economic, and ecological sustainability principles. In design, it is important to understand the distinction between Green Design and Sustainable Design. Green design is focused on reducing or eliminating any negative environmental impact of a design. Sustainable design is focused more on the whole system surrounding a product or service. It deals with the interaction of economic, environmental health, and social equity factors.
