Explain the 3 key pillars of sustainable design/development.

People, Planet and Profit are the aspects to create a successful design, when designing a product the designer has to think of those 3 things.

People – social – will they be able to actually afford it, will the design fit the surrounding areas. Could if affect the likes of the education or maybe lead to some sort of freedom

Planet – environment – trying to protect the world from dangerous gases which will soon enough cause the ice caps to melt, I mean since the earth has risen in temperature by 1 degree in the past 100 years, it’s likely to happen one day.

Profit – economic – pretty much the amount of money the company can produce from the product,
