Ecodesign Workshop
Debate
By Ramon Farreny, Raul Garcia, Jordi Oliver and Joan Rieradevall
Design plays a fundamental role in environmental protection. Taking the life cycle of products into account allows for the application of environmental improvement strategies. During the workshop, each group is assigned a small appliance as a subject of study. By observing and dismantling this appliance, they will find out what its main environmental short-comings are in its various stages of life, and will also be able to evaluate possibilities for improvement.
