> SUSTAINABLE CRITERIA AND GUIDELINES ARE
NEEDED
> METHODS AND TOOLS ARE NEEDED to orientate
design towards SUSTAINABLE system stakeholder
interactions
[… NOT ALL SYSTEM INNOVATION ARE ECO-EFFICENT
AND/OR SOCIALLY EQUITABLE AND COHESIVE!]

SUSTAINABILITY DESIGN-ORIENTING (SDO) TOOLKIT
WHAT IT CONSISTS OF:
a modular software toolkit supporting the following
processes:
- A: existing system qualitative sustainability analysis +
prioritisation of sustainability criteria/guidelines
- B: best practices analysis/identify sustainable existing
options
- C: generate sustainability-focused idea
- D: check/visualise sustainability improvement/worsening
of developed concept/s
AIM
orientate system design process
towards sustainable solutions
(environmental, socio-ethical,
economic)

ENVIRONMENTAL CRITERIA (GUIDELINES)
to evaluate/suggest system eco-efficency
(stakeholder innovative interactions)
. system life optimisation
. transportation/distribution reduction
. resources reduction
. waste minimisation/valorisation
. conservation/biocompatibility
. toxic reduction

Carlo Vezzoli
SOCIO-ETHIC CRITERIA (GUIDELINES)
to evaluate/suggest system social equity and cohesion
(stakeholder innovative interactions)
. improve employment/working conditions
. increase equity/justice in relation to stakeholders
. enable responsible/sustainable consumption
. favour/integrate the weak and marginalized
. improve social cohesion
. empower/enhance local resources
