A course with a revolutionary approach to design thinking that will put sustainability innately at the centre of your practice.
The Sustainablist Masterclass has been created for all types of design practitioners from object to apparel, furniture to interior, graphic to cosmetic to hardware...
If you are a designer or maker of any kind, creating tangible, material products for the world, then this course if for you.
We've reached a time where we can no longer design or produce in the way that we have in the past. It is simply not sustainable to do so. The nature of the consumer and producer is changing, and the Sustainablist school has been created to help you navigate and embrace the new sustainable paradigm we are entering, with a sound philosophical base that makes sense of creating things for the world.
The Sustainablist school has been created as part of the 10th Anniversary of Supercyclers, the original sustainable design initiative.
Our courses are designed to fill the gap in design + sustainability education. They focus on a philosophical shift in our thinking that puts sustainability innately at the centre of all design and making practice, which in turn has the potential to influence everything we do. Our philosophy is incorporated into practical and actionable guidelines that will transition your practice into the new paradigm we are entering.
I'm Sarah K - the Sustainablist
I'm a designer, curator and founder of sustainable design initiative supercyclers. My academic training is in Architecture and Film Making, and I've always been especially interested in philosophy.
I've been thinking and acting on sustainable outcomes in design for 25 years, so that it's become second nature to me. I've created this course, which documents a philosophy of creating things for the world in a mindful manner. And I've distilled the most important of these concepts into some useful templates for you to incorporate into your own practice..
'The sustainablist course is not just about repurposing or recycling - think of it as an entirely new way to think, do and be. Sarah K has written a philosophy of living sustainably on the planet as designers and makers that we can easily absorb into our own work as creatives'
