IIID and Mother Earth summit on Sustainable Design

Mother Earth has joined forced with the Indian Institute of Interior Designers to host an event on Sustainable Design. It has been an interesting project to create the Sustainable Design presentation for my father Jacob Mathew, one of the keynote speakers along with Katarine from the Savana Institute of Design. The presentation included references to conscious consumption, social business and how to do less with more as well as a screening of "The Story of Stuff".

Conscious consumption

And other key questions:

How do we do more with less?
Do minimum harm?
