Towards Grammars for Cradle-to-Cradle Design
Cradle to cradle design (C2C) considers material use and reuse as integral to the composition and specification of the design. Since grammars have been used extensively to model design processes, we consider the possibilities of grammars to model C2C design. Central to our proposal is the idea that products cannot be designed in isolation, but C2C desiderata can only be achieved by explicit des...
متن کاملCradle to cradle design initiatives: lessons and opportunities for Prevention through Design (PtD).
I will focus on a different zone—products/materials that might be going into the facilities/buildings. The term sustainable development is defined as “Meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs” (Bruntland, Report, 1987). We can buy into the goals of ecology, but we are trying to make it practical. The typical question is “Is ...
متن کاملCradle to Cradle for End-user Computing Devices in Business
Whilst computers can and do contribute significantly to improving our use of sustainable materials and practices, computers themselves are responsible for the consumption of large amounts of such resources, contributing extensively to hazardous waste. The aim of this study is to develop a model for organisations to collect data regarding their end-user device implementation and identify areas f...
متن کاملExploring the Feasibility of Cradle to Cradle (Product) Design: Perspectives from New Zealand Scientists
This research project explores the feasibility of a Cradle to Cradle approach to sustainable product design in New Zealand. A framework for sustainable design was proposed by environmental chemist Michael Braungart and architect William McDonough who suggest that the current paradigm of “cradle to grave” product development is unable to provide a solution to the world’s current ecological crisi...
متن کاملCradle to cradle: Reverse logistics strategies and opportunities across three industry sectors
Manufacturers have experienced institutional pressures in the form of market and regulatory demands to conform to the standards dictated by environmental regulations. The primary forces are studied for three industry sectors (automotive, consumer appliances and electronic) to close the supply chain loop in the product lifecycle. The first deals with identifying the drivers of a growing market f...
