Sustainable design

We don't reuse our products!!!!

In my opinion, designers are not taking the time to evaluate what happens to their product once it has been disposed of. This is a major issue that needs to be addressed sooner rather than later. At the moment I am attempting to make a bowl from resin and Quinoa and then sanding it down to give a stone like quality. This will be the packaging for a new cereal. One big issue I was facing though was the fact that, if the bowl was the packaging, people were only going to by one. However, I then gave the bowl hidden properties that help heal people with mental health problems. I would have so much of this healing chemical released each time it was used, that say after ten or so uses it would become a normal bowl again. The customer would then have to by another one if they needed more treatment. Although, they would not be left with nothing. They would still have a lovely bowl to eat their cereal from in the morning.
