The booklet above is from design firm Thomas Matthews, stating their commitment to sustainable ("good") design. It highlights ten down to earth, real, notions that could or should, apply to anyone, not only to (design) firms and also provides examples of how they themselves have incorporated these notions in their work. The ideas feel somewhat self-evident, but if you think of it, they aren’t. They could make a huge difference if people incorporated them a bit more into their life- and business-style. Although I feel everyone should at least open the link and read the brochure itself, it's ten pages (with pictures) hardly "war and peace", I'll list them here for the ever-so-lazy readers:
1. re-thinking, 2. re-using, 3. using friendly materials, 4. saving energy, 5. sharing new ideas, 6. designing to last, 7. staying local, buying ethical, 8. supporting what we believe, 9. inspiring, having fun, and 10. saving money
here it is.
