Design for Sustainability

Identifying impact and making improvements

Forward-looking businesses should be asking "what should our design strategy be, given the environmental and social issues out there?" Answering this question will help you find more ways to be successful in the future.

At The Design Programme we are passionate about sustainable design. Our specialist design adviser, Lynne Elvins, has developed a unique tool to help businesses understand the lifecycle journey of their products or services (from production to disposal), and the potential impacts of each stage.

Whilst most businesses want to be more sustainable, it’s not always easy to know where to begin or what will get the best returns. We can help you understand the issues and identify where improvements can be made.

Our design for sustainability advice covers a range of topics:

- creating greener packaging
- developing more sustainable products and services
- embedding your environmental or social credentials into your brand
- understanding consumer interest in green and ethical companies
- responding to supply chain demands for sustainability credentials
- using sustainability issues as a driver for innovation and a route to new markets

All our design advisers are trained to use our design for sustainability approach. Once we have identified issues to focus on, we can scope quick wins and produce a clear design project brief around the biggest opportunities and savings for your business.
