Innovative Ecodesign: An Exploratory Study
Environmental limits and the need for a more sustainable future require dramatic technological and societal innovation. This has led to the concept and practice of ecodesign, and though the theoretical framework and literature on the subject suggest a significant role for design for sustainability, current ecodesign practice lags someway behind. This paper begins by reviewing current practice and concludes that the potential for ecodesign innovation is not fully exploited at present. The paper then describes a research project that aimed to explore and describe such innovative approaches and the ways in which design might more significantly contribute to sustainability. Comparative design workshops were conducted with designers from differing contexts tackling the same design task. Results are presented along with early conclusions and some discussion.
