A course centred around sustainable design practices, introducing new methods of approaching design from a critical lens and a systems perspective that challenge the Western-centric design mindset. Skills and concepts to be introduced may include regenerative fashion, zero waste, design for disassembly, and circular design. Students will explore interdisciplinary methods to address specific design challenges they identify and are encouraged to develop research and process methods in order to produce diverse outcomes and speculative scenarios. Students will develop innovative approaches to fashion design that can contribute to ecological resilience and thriving societies. This course will involve experimentation, prototyping and reflection.Weekly
