British designers ecodesign survey

Ecodesign and Sustainable Design are becoming more widely discussed in the design industry, but relatively little is known about the current levels of knowledge, awareness and practical experience that UK design consultancies have when it comes to addressing briefs with environmental and / or social elements in them. Over the next few weeks I will be sending out a short survey to better understand the status quo in UK design consultancies.

If you would like to share your experiences by completing the survey, please download a copy of the survey from http://www.lboro.ac.uk/research/susdesign/SDN/whats-new/whats-new-main.htm and return it to me.

I hope that building up a clearer picture of where we are now will; identify examples of best practice, illustrate what tools and processes are working and highlight gaps in current ecodesign support, which we can aim to address.
