Conception Design (Graphic Designers going green (not the colour)

Designers are involved with an overwhelming amount of paper products… whether you are printing out quotes, briefs, research found, drafts of designs and the list continues! And the industry we are in – means paper! You design something to be printed on – well – mass amounts of PAPER! There is no way of getting around that unless you start considering printing on recycled materials…(more)

In Search of Design (Climate Change & Design??)

Ok, the title may throw you a bit, but as a participant in the annual “Blog Action Day”, I am bound to break out of the norms of our topics here on ISOD and explore something a little more ‘political’ and a little more ‘evnvironmentally friendly’.

Mother Earth is in a delicate situation at present. She has the tools to heal herself, but only when mankind can slow down the damage we are creating in an ever increasing capacity across the globe.

The Design Slice (The Climate and Your Attic)

350 parts per million is what many scientists, climate experts, and progressive national governments are now saying is the safe upper limit for CO2 in our atmosphere.
