sustainable designs

  • Sustainable design
    • life cycle assessment
      • Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a methodological tool that applies life cycle thinking and assesses the environmental aspects and impacts associated with a product, process, or service. LCA estimates the environmental impacts resulting from all stages in the product life cycle, from raw material extraction, production, transportation, usage to disposal.
    • cradle to cradle
      • Cradle to Cradle Design offers a clear alternative, a framework in which the safe, regenerative productivity of nature provides models for wholly positive human designs
    • Definition
      • a design that can last for a very long time
    • design for the environment
      • Design for the Environment (DfE) is simply an approach taken by companies to make business decisions that consider environmental impacts. Some call it eco-design or just green design.
    • biomimicry
      • Biomimicry is a new science and design principle developed by Janine Benyus, the author of Biomimicry: Innovation Inspired by Nature, and the President of the biomimicry institute. Biomimicry is about learning from nature and studying what works in nature, and then imitating these best ideas, designs and processes to solve our problems.

What is research?

research is the form of investigating something we do not know.


Research is important as it will help us to understand things that we do not know.


We can conduct good research by doing detailed searches on the Internet. We can also work with others to give desired results.

ADMT lesson 1: reflections

  1. What is Art, Design, Media and Technology (ADMT) to you?
  2. Why is ADMT important?
  3. What are the skills that you would want to learn in ADMT? 
  4. Sketch how the world would look like without art, design, media and technology. Describe briefly your sketch. [Take a picture of your sketch and post it on your personal blog]
1 It is to express one's creativeness and innvation
2 It is important as without it, the world is boring.
3 I want to design a skin for my Macbook that is my type
4 My picture show some people living in caves as no one designed the house yet. It also show 2 cavemen outside the cave cooking, as the stove was not designed. They are also not wearing proper clothes as no one is creative enough to make clothes.
