The ‘Waste Age: What Can Design Do?’ exhibition, a touring exhibition from The Design Museum, London previously featured in Dezeen, Wallpaper* and Country & Townhouse, exposes society’s ‘take, make and waste’ economy, which has created an environmental crisis, and explores what design can do to rethink the way we produce and consume goods.
It reveals the visionary designers who are transforming waste into valuable resources and developing new materials and systems to reduce waste and its impact on our planet. By promoting new – and old – ways of living with nature, design can help steer us to a cleaner future.
