Sustainable Design Resources

What are some good resources for sustainable design?

Online

  • Re-nourish (we use the project calculator for nearly every print project)
  • Our Portfolio (most projects have information on the print production and materials we’re using)
  • INGEDE (in-depth information about about de-inkability of various production methods—a problem affecting certain digital presses)
  • NAPIM (use to check the BRC content of the ink your printer is using)
  • Sustainable Packaging Coalition (free downloadable pdfs with tons of information about designing sustainable packaging)

Green Design Books

  • Green Graphic Design by Brian Dougherty (the best book for beginners, this book is filled with case studies and lots of practical information)
  • Sustainable Graphic Design by Wendy Jedlička (the best book for advanced green graphic designers, a vast amount of information) - SustainAble by Aaris Sherin (another great beginner book)
  • Our Eco Pocket-Sized Notebook (an easy resource that guides you through specifying environmentally responsible paper)
