Reflection Catchup #2

Annie Lennard

The video posseses insight on the process of our products lives (from start to finish), going through a linear system from extraction, production, distribution, consumption and disposal. However Annie points out this system is actually in crisis. There are problems within each checkpoint and will simply cause the entire system to become obsolete in the future. However theirs an alternative way is to change the linear path into a cycle utilizing sustainability and equity. As an industrial designer, it’s important to take notice of the current news that’s happening in our world, as slight changes such as resource depletion can highly affect our way of design. So from Annie Lennard’s video we take notice of what’s happening and we as designers, need to take it on board and with our designs show we are helping the world.
