The Handbook of Design for Sustainability
ISBN: 9780857858528 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 576 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Sustainability has emerged as a central issue for contemporary societies and for the world community as a whole. Furthermore, many of the social and environmental concerns that are embodied in the term 'sustainability' are directly or indirectly related to design. Designers help to define our human made environment - how it is produced, how it is used, and how long it endures. Despite some forty years of development and increased awareness of the critical relationships that exist between design decisions and modes of production, energy use, environmental impacts, the nature of work and...
