Australasian Student Design Awards 2010 - Call For Entries

2nd March, 2010

In recent years, Sustainable Design has moved past its pop-culture status to form a key requirement of any good design process.

Sustainable Designs allow us to live, work and play in such a way that is more efficient, profitable, secure and pleasurable but most importantly a way that does not compromise our future. Now as one of the defining ideas of the 21st century, Sustainability holds tremendous possibilities for designers.
