Description
Every era has had a signature material - stone, iron and wood spring to mind. Today, it’s plastic. And our oceans are full of it. The result of this new environment is a demand for design innovation like we’ve never seen before. But as we look forward to this future, it is equally important for designers to look back — reflecting on where we’ve come from, and what we can learn from our mistakes.Ross and Ila are joined by leading design historian Peter Fiell to discuss the broader history of design, and how its future must leave a positive impact on our planet. From the efficient use of materials, to harnessing the power of AI, they explore the different ways in which designers need to adapt to our rapidly changing social, political, and climatic environments.
