Sustainable Design 4/2008


The task for this Module was to do a site-research on an eco-system nearby. The students choosed Juhu-Beach for this research. Their topic was "Urban Beach". In a second step they were to design a product for this eco-system that fits the specific needs and purposes of the site. In addition to those tasks we did a field trip to a sustainable employment project for women in Andheri, Mumbai. They produce and design clothing and gift-articles for fair trade organizations like e.g. the German "GEPA". Thanks a lot to my students (Dhaval and Devansh) for the good working atmosphere and the interesting results.
