Abstract

Designers have started to demonstrate an increased interest in the development of sustainable products, departing from alternative approaches, which differ from traditional mainstream of production. There have been many inspiring examples that have challenged prevailing stereotypes, resulting in the creation of products with new aesthetic qualities associated to sustainability issues. This paper investigates the emergence of new esthetical directions in product design that have appeared as a result of the introduction of the sustainability agenda into product development. The methodology for this work is based on a literature review and analysis of examples of design movements, products and designers associated with the environmental and social issues that emerged in the last twenty years.

Keywords:
