Article Preview

Abstract:

Due to social progress and development, environmental problems have become increasingly apparent. The essence of the design is to solve problems. However, in the era of development, driven by the interests, the design started to deviate from its essence. Most designs start to be a profitable tool. Compelling the appearance of the stimulus to lure the consumer, it never solves the problem, but also aggravates the energy consumption. The future development of sustainable design is the only way. The design couldn’t solve any real problems unless it is conducted by the in-depth reflection of human development and global environment. This requires the joint efforts of whole the design industry.
