philo & co moderate AGDA ‘The conscious creator’ live at the Powerhouse Museum
The need for circular design has never been greater.
philo & co’s Founder, Pippa, had the privilege of moderating the Australian Graphic Design Association (AGDA) event "The Conscious Creator" at the Powerhouse Museum, in celebration of Earth Day. The evening focused on the pressing need for circular design and the role of creativity in regenerating and restoring the Earth. This timely event brought together an inspiring lineup of speakers to discuss sustainable practices and explore the vast possibilities within the design industry and beyond.
Pippa led an engaging panel that addressed the challenges of our collective existence, and the crucial role design can play in shaping a sustainable future. The discussion delved into how designers can influence change, integrate sustainability into creative workflows, and drive meaningful action within the broader context of the circular economy.
One key takeaway from the evening was the power of creativity to influence positive change. Pippa highlighted how design, when approached with purpose, can serve as a powerful tool for environmental regeneration. By embracing circular principles, designers can create products and packaging that reduce waste, maximize resource efficiency, and contribute to long-term sustainability goals.
The event provided valuable insights for designers and creatives, emphasising the importance of conscious creation in today’s world. philo & co continues to support businesses and design agencies looking to integrate sustainability into their work, offering tailored consultancy and training to empower teams to design for the future.
