Social Design

Social Design is the shaping of products and services, and is the creation of social reality; the design of the social world. We can design more ecological products by carefully selecting the materials we use. After Project 1 I think we will all select useful/helpful materials to help us and our cause. We have responsibility over our choices that we make during our design process. Social design thinking plays a large part in starting or taking action in social design. We need to think of our 'design' and use that in creating. Our ideas should have an outcome focusing on societies needs, not wants. "Understanding and using social design processes can contribute to the improvement of livelihood."
