Cradle to Cradle certainly inspired lots of possibilities and the need to be responsible as designers. Most importantly it questions the design practices of a product, that instead of designing without due regard to what happens to it after its lifespan is over, it considers how a product can benefit the surroundings even it is past its use-by date. It is design at the very beginning, taking in all the factors and considerations, of how the product and the constituents interact with each other and the surroundings and context it is in. And that I believe, is the beauty and value of design. To be able to come up with a product that works harmoniously with its surroundings and contributing beneficially to everyone.
It is certainly mind-boggling but hey, I guess we can try to take it one day at a time. To be able to enjoy the breeze with all the wonderful scents and smells, to be able to enjoy basking under the sun is a blessing to be enjoyed and shared. So for now I shall try my best to be more responsible and walk the talk.
