Inspired by Industry Fussy
Students explore sustainable product design, testing materials and creating concepts or prototypes that rethink plastics, packaging, and everyday habits.
This context encourages students to explore sustainability, materials, and product design, focusing on the environmental impact of manufacturing. It provides opportunities to discuss plastics and their alternatives, such as bamboo, wood, and recycled materials, while considering user habits and design challenges. Outcomes may be conceptual or practical, including refillable packaging, bathroom organisers, or fabric-based designs. The project promotes creative freedom, allowing students to experiment with CAD, prototyping, and sustainable decision-making. Schools can adapt the theme to suit their curriculum, fostering a deeper understanding of responsible design choices.
