Cradle to Cradle : Book Review
I would recommend this book to any Design Student. This is one of those books that has change my perception of product design. It teaches us about abudence, there is a life for a Eco-Product Designer. We are no longer the Designers making for landfill.
As a undergraduatte product designer it can be a worry to think about the future of our enviroment and what the result of the products we make. This book utlines a new design process that will not ‘make less bad products’ but we will make products that will create a better effect onto our enviroment.
It has a good range about manufacturing technique, Service Vs Product, Sustainable Arcteticutre, and a new outline framework. I would highly recommend this book to all undergraduate product designers and to read it!
[...] SOLUTION: a ‘Cradle to Cradle’ design response, where each product is easily up-cycled into the same product or even a better product. See my book review post. [...]
