Sustainable design allows people to have a better life, while design needs to consider the most essential emotional needs of users at a deeper level after satisfying the function.
If green ecological design is more about environmental protection from materials, then system design is more comprehensive in explaining the development from various angles such as materials and commerciality, but the development of society is always bringing various challenges and new issues for design.
Perhaps people may think that the relationship between sustainable design and emotional design is not so close, but in fact emotional sustainability is a new direction based on the development of existing sustainable design. Sustainable design is the hope that the products we use and the space we live in can be passed on continuously for a long time, through continuous functional iterations, based on the concept of environmental protection as a spiritual and emotional support, to establish a long-term relationship between the user and the product, so that the relationship between the product and the user becomes more profound and valuable with the passage of time, to achieve the purpose of reducing consumption and waste.
So, what exactly is sustainable design, is it environmentally friendly design? We can’t deny it, but not really. With the development of society and human activities, sustainable design is constantly given a new meaning. Therefore, when we think of sustainable design, we should not equate it with “environmental protection” anymore, environmental protection is only one of its directions.
