Karianne, a DesignBoston reader that works at Suffolk University’s New England School of Design, just tipped me off to a great, green design event happening today!
Design for the Environment 2010 is NESAD’s 4th annual green design trade show, featuring 26 local, national and international design companies, with an aim at showcasing their best, most environmentally-friendly designs.
The design community, along with society as a whole, has become aware that a new, more “bio-friendly” approach design must be taken if we are to stop polluting our earth, wasting energy and resources and jeopardizing the health of all species. Design firms are looked to for expertise in these areas and educated designers must be conversant with both design strategies and building technologies associated with environmentally responsible structures and spaces. Those designers who adapt and respond to changing global energy and resource issues through sustainable design will pursue their profession in a socially and environmentally responsible way.
Design for the Environment 2010 is taking place today, from 12:00 to 2:30, at the NESAD Galleria
NESAD Galleria
10 St. James Ave (the same building as Landry & Arcari and Montage)
