Lowering the EVR through strategies like reducing material use, energy in production/use, and transportation can generate more sustainable and eco-efficient value creation. Product-service systems are discussed as a way to enhance value, convenience and image while lowering environmental impacts.
The document discusses mobility in Asian cities, focusing on bicycle environments and policies in Taiwan, China, Singapore, and India. It provides details on the planning and development of bicycle lanes and infrastructure in Taiwan, the prominent role of bicycles and electric bikes in transportation in China, Singapore's focus on footpaths and off-road paths for bicycles due to limited road space, and the large share of trips under 10km by non-motorized transport in Indian cities.
Ingrid De Vries_Greening The Campus At Erasmus University RotterdamCarlo Vezzoli
The document discusses the history and initiatives of the Greening the Campus project at Erasmus University Rotterdam from 2005 to 2009. It began as a bottom-up process to introduce more sustainable practices on campus, including organic food options and reducing paper usage. Over time it expanded to include working groups focused on energy/water, materials, mobility, and catering. The project also collaborated with external partners and aimed to integrate sustainability into research, education, and campus operations.
Gertjan Dewerk_Sustainable Design Theory Applied At The CampusCarlo Vezzoli
1. The document discusses sustainable campus development and presents an approach for sustainably transforming the campus of Delft University of Technology.
2. It introduces concepts of sustainable development and outlines 4 steps for system innovation: product improvement, redesign, function innovation, and system innovation.
3. The approach involves analyzing stakeholders (actors) and their needs, demands, and goals to understand how to influence and be influenced by different groups towards more sustainable solutions.
The document discusses sustainable mobility and urban transport. It focuses on organizing mobility in a way that does not negatively impact future generations' access to resources or welfare. Specifically, it addresses issues like road traffic congestion, pollution, injuries from accidents. It advocates designing transport infrastructure that allocates space equitably for all road users, with a focus on people rather than vehicles. This includes separate pedestrian and bicycle routes, roundabouts at intersections, and lower speed limits to improve safety.
Hitoshi Komoto_Service Cad A Tool For Systematic Pss DesignCarlo Vezzoli
This document discusses a tool called Service CAD that is designed to help with systematic product-service system (PSS) design. Service CAD aims to support PSS modeling, evaluation, and help designers reason through the design process. It does this by classifying and collecting information about individual products, services, and how they relate within a system. This information can then be integrated to design new PSS offerings, with Service CAD storing explanations for how the design increases quality. Overall, the document outlines the challenges of PSS design and introduces Service CAD as a potential solution to help designers address those challenges in a systematic way.
Liu Guanzhong_China Public Transport Research WorkshopCarlo Vezzoli
The document discusses challenges and potential solutions related to public transportation design in China. It notes that overcrowding is a major issue, with buses often carrying far more passengers than their rated capacity during rush hours. The document explores ways to dynamically adjust the interior space of buses based on passenger volume and other factors. It also examines design approaches to address issues like passenger safety during boarding in inclement weather, providing space for babies and handling accessibility. The overall aim appears to be making public transportation in China more efficient, comfortable and accommodating of different user needs.

minimising the environmental impact
23. Xerox offers a package deal to installs the photocopiers - not owned by the customer-
maintain, repair, substitute and collect them at the end of life; the customer (only) pays
per page
offering ownerless photocopiers with all-inclusive life cycle services, xerox is
economically incentivised to provide (and design) them long lasting, reusable, re-
manufacturable and recyclable products, i.e. reducing the environmental impact
PAY PER PAGE, XEROX
since early 2000s
S.PSS cases started to be studied as eco-efficent win-win model

25. OFF GRID Electric - Solar Home System
OFF GRID Electric offers to Tanzania rural people a Solar Home System (SHS) which
includes: Solar panel + Storage + Wires + Energy Using Products (EUPs, e.g. two lights +
phone charger). OFF GRID Electric retains ownership of SHS and EUPs; customers pay per
period (daily fees).
Cutting initial and life cycle costs of SHS hardware, make them accessible and
preservable over time even to low-income people (to all); while economically
incentivizing OFF GRID Electric to provide (design) highly efficient, long lasting and
recyclable products.
since early 2010s
the coupling of S.PSS and DE has been studied as a win-win locally-
based sustainable and resilient solutions accessible to all
26. we know promising win-win offer models - S.PSS, DE and
S.PSS&DE – asking for a system discontinuity and promoting
environmental protection, social equity and inclusion, and
economic prosperity as resilient systems for all

A KEY ROLE FOR DESIGN
HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS
31. today the design and offer of both
products with low environmental impact
and
Sustainable (Distributed) Product-Service System is still too
limited!
THE BAD NEWS…
today the design community (as a whole) is still more
part of the problem then part of the solution!
32. increasingly clear a key role need to be played by
DESIGN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS
strongly promoting basic and applied research
and education on sustainability
to build a new generation of designers
well equipped for both
product and system design for sustainability
