exam sem 2 Flashcards
sustainability
meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
-design multifunctional products
-develop long-lasting products
-solve and environmental problem
-recycled materials
three areas of sustainability
ENVIRONMENTAL:
the world around us: animals, plants, land, air, water, etc.
SOCIAL:
people: individuals and small/large groups, communities, societies, cultural groups, etc
ECONOMIC:
money: the financial systems that keep the world functioning
to be a sustainable designer we can:
-locally sources materials
-sustainably sources materials
-recycled materials
-minimal waste
-non-toxic-chemicals
-wont go out of style
-more than one function
working technologically
involes using all technological tools avaliable to create the best possible outcome.
-using computer software
-recording clearly
-computer drawings
production plan
-scheduled production plan
-timeline
-material costing list
-risk assessment
-quality measures
scheduled production plan
-outlines the steps of production
-outlines the tasks required to complete the step
-states the equipment required
-an approximate time designated to complete the step
-can include safety measures (if not completing a risk assessment
timeline
-overall step by step of production
-presents predicted time lines and compares to actual timelines
material costing list
-detailed record of all products
-shows itemised costing of all materials
-provides an overall cost
risk assessment
identifies possible hazards
-aims to minimize the risk of incidents from potential hazards
-identifies hazards, assesses the risk, identifies and implements controls
quality measures
-a brief outline of the standard that you expect to achieve during the production process
-e.g. using an overlocker, steaming the garment, all loose threads cut
production journal
-visual and written record of the production process
-consolidates the tools and processes used
-successes and challenges
-records modifications
how indigenous peoples’ cultures can influence product design:
-connection to country (land and environment)
-use of natural materials and techniques
-storytelling
-culturally significant objects or symbols
-traditional visual patternsrens
