ABOUT

Designers play a crucial role in driving the circular economy forward. By shaping mindsets and influencing positive change, especially in young minds through education, they can foster a new generation of responsible designers committed to creating a better world through eco-conscious and ethical designs. The Sustainability Design Showcase serves as a vital platform that ignites environmental awareness in the School of Design, Temasek Polytechnic. Through this showcase, students tackle real-world issues and develop creative solutions that drive meaningful, lasting change. As the world faces global challenges like climate change, resource depletion, and food waste, bold and innovative design solutions are essential. The showcase emerges as a powerful catalyst in this effort, harnessing the power of design to create a more sustainable future.
