“The economy is a wholly owned subsidiary of the environment, not the reverse.” - Herman Daly

With everyone traveling much less and eating more at home, this year’s virtual format will make #ADW20 the most sustainable Design Week yet!

But our passion for environmental stewardship doesn’t stop with Design Week itself—last year we had a half-dozen events that explored the intersection of design and sustainability. Sessions on the circular economy, car-free trip planning, green roofs, and fast fashion presented new ways of addressing issues of waste, pollution, and quality of life.
