A one, two or three week course at Schumacher College
February 4 - 22, 2008
This course will look at how nature's design process can influence human-made design, what constitutes form and function, how beauty relates to sustainable design and how co-design processes can lead to innovative solutions. The final week will provide an introduction to cradle-to-cradle design, a methodology for intelligent product design which takes into account
the entire life-cycle of the product.
EZIO MANZINI is Professor of Industrial Design at Milan Polytechnic and co-author of Sustainable Everyday: Scenarios of Urban Life.
ALASTAIR FUAD-LUKE is a facilitator, lecturer, and author of The Eco-Design Handbook, with a special interest in "slow design".
MICHAEL BRAUNGART is a chemist and founder of the Environmental Protection
Encouragement Agency (EPEA) in Hamburg.
