Designers explore our changing relationship with nature in Dezeen x DDW2020 talk



In this live discussion for Dezeen x Dutch Design Week 2020, three emerging designers explored sustainable design and how to redefine our relationship with nature.
Designers Martina Taranto, Noud Sleumer and Elissa Brunato joined Dezeen deputy editor Cajsa Carlson for a conversation on the Dutch Design Week (DDW) sub-theme "It's in our Nature".
The talk was introduced by Dutch Design Foundation programme and community manager Marleen van Bergeijk, who curated the the theme.
Designer Elissa Brunato
Brunato talked about her work together with Christoph Dichmann on the exhibition "Geo-Design: Sand. The Building Block of Modernity." It explores how sand, the second-most used resource on Earth after water, is running out and what repercussions this will have. The designer also discussed her Bio Iridescent Sequins made from natural cellulose, which are more sustainable than regular plastic sequins.
Designer Noud Sleumer
Sleumer's project The Global Souvenir Shop investigates the production of smartphones from a different angle than usual by looking at the social, geographic and cultural conditions that play a part in the production and processing of smartphones.
His exhibition, on show as part of the What a Time to be Alive project at DDW, aims to illustrate a narrative of local consumption and how this is entwined with the global market.
