ECONetwork "Ideas Lounge" #1

We attended the first Ecodesign Centre Wales new initiative - ECONetwork "Ideas Lounge" at the Norwegian Church in Cardiff Bay this week. This workshop was the first of many to come attended by designers in Wales like us that are proactive in sustainable design-thinking looking to develop an eco design network facilitated by EcoDesign Centre Wales.
This first workshop kicked off with 2 speakers - designer Jonathan Crinion who presented his thoughts on the problem of climate change, peak oil and resource depletion. Jonathan was followed by Rob Brown from Sprout Design who shared the studio's experiences of sustainable and inclusive design. We later broke into groups to explore ideas for creating and setting up the ecodesign network.
