Think of a cool gadget you use all the time, and what different materials it contains, or are used to make it. How do those materials add to making it more useful or a better product? Often, designing is not just about inventing new materials but new ways to use an existing material, and it’s a bonus to be able to reuse or recycle these without extra steps to process it – taking a sustainable material approach!
