Die Quelle nachhaltiger Produkte liegt nicht selten direkt in den Designstudios dieserWelt: Sie können erheblichen Einfluss auf die Produktion 'grüner' (Print-)produkte nehmen, die keinesfalls grau aussehen müssen. Anstöße hierzu finden sich in einem einzigen Band versammelt: 'Nachhaltiges Grafikdesign' beleuchtet umweltgerechte Druckverfahren, ressourcenschonende Papierherstellung sowie grundlegende Theorien und Konzepte umweltbewusster Gestaltung. Zahlreiche Verfahren wurden auch bei der Produktions des Titels selbst angewendet.

Sustainable design is gaining prominence as a pivotal issue for the future of contemporary practice at the best design schools and at professional design conferences. Graphic designers and their clients are increasingly demanding sustainable solutions. Designers want to address these needs when presenting their work for consideration. As businesses continue to adapt to and provide environmental solutions with their own products, they are demanding it from their creative partners, and designers need to be on the forefront of these initiatives by being well informed. SustainAble will provide the information they need to be ahead of the curve on sustainability issues, inform them on sustainable applications and to approach the issue of sustainability in the areas of paper, printing, formats, materials, inks, and executions.
