Скачать или смотреть New! Design Futures Forum 2024: Design for the Future of Sustainability (Segment 2)

The current cataclysmic trajectory of our planet has made sustainability – which often means simply minimising ecological harm – insufficient in ensuring a viable future. This is why designers and others are now turning to regenerative practices that aim to do good by helping to heal the planet, rather than being “less bad”. This includes the growing area of more-than-human perspectives, which emphasises the needs and interests of non-human life.

By presenting a range of approaches at different scales – from object to city to landscape – this session illustrates the potential for design to have a net-positive effect on the environment.

Organised by the DesignSingapore Council (Dsg), the Design Futures Forum 2024 investigated the critical role of design and designers in the areas of emerging technology, sustainability, and care through the theme “Designing Our Collective Future”.

Featuring thought leaders and practitioners from Singapore and around the world, the forum explored how people – from an individual scale to a larger, societal one – and design intersect to make a positive impact and create a better future for all beings.
