Ethos: A new Voice in Design
Is Sustainability an OXYMORON?
Design has always seemed to improve our lives, whether it’s the way we live, or what’s within our lives to make them easier, to only find out later, that these once useful things, have cornered us into a position where using them becomes a hazard. Hazards perhaps not in short term, but in long term, such as by the way we consume, the waste it produces, and the effects poor management.
This goes with the spread of living, the land it takes up, where supplies have to come from, the effect off transport, ease of transport, what environmental costs of the transport, etc. Such living spaces are either moving outwards into a vast spread, or condensing into more population dense areas, such as city apartments. Which is better?
