In the modern competitive business world it is absolutely essential that costs are managed effectively and efficiently in order to maximize return on all kinds of investments, and this cost reduction work would automaticly come down to our design stage, any of the savings made at this stage will be valid for the rest of the product lifecycle. This is also considered as the most important and difficult stage within the lifecycle. To accomplish this, for instance, we could design for ease of assembly and easy joining and fastening, or making it more durable or harder to break.
Sustainability is always a big concern when design new products. Materials that are abundant, non-toxic, have low embodied energy, and meet or exceed regulations would be most ideal materials. Materials selection is key to sustainable design strategies throughout the product lifecycle. Autodesk Eco Materials Advisertool is an amazing software on the website which I noticed extremly valueble for future designing work, it gives advices and helps you to make more informed material choices.
As a designer, I think, these are great videos that might help me in my study and career in the future.
