From 20–23 September, we will be showing ‘Material Change’, an exhibition of our ongoing research to improve the circularity of the mass-produced products for which we are responsible.

Our exhibition will be part of Material Matters, the leading fair investigating how the design industry can address issues around the circular economy and why material intelligence is so important to all our lives.

Design Declares launches today: a climate emergency declaration campaign to encourage communication, digital, industrial, and service designers to take action on the climate and ecological crisis. Its aim is to connect and build a community of designers, studios, agencies, and institutions which are fed up with a lack of industry momentum and ready to act on the most defining issue of our times.

The campaign urges designers from all disciplines to acknowledge we are in an emergency of climate and nature and offers Eight Acts of Emergency as starting points. There is no requirement to already have policies and action plans in place, but there is an understanding that by signing you are committing towards an improvement in the reduction of your climate impact.

Acts of Emergency

1.  Sound the alarm

2.  Start the journey

3.  Bring clients with us

4.  Measure what we make

5.  Redefine ‘good’

6.  Educate, accelerate

7.  Design for justice

8.  Amplify voices for change

Design Declares will provide a toolkit, which proposes a set of actions, tools, and insights for each Act to support designers in making changes.

We are proud to be a part of the initiative, join us today.

Over the last three decades, the challenges faced by both people and the planet have evolved dramatically, becoming increasingly complex and urgent. In response, the values and priorities that shape the landscape of design have shifted, influencing what we design and how we design it, where we manufacture it, and the materials we use.

In its 25th year, Pearson Lloyd has been reflecting on its work through the lens of these changes, thinking about what they mean for people, the spaces we occupy, and the world we call home.

Open from the 20th-25th of September, register here to attend.
