12:30 – 13:00 From Nature to Innovation: Sustainable Creativity in Design (English)
Joanne O’Rourke -
“Design is more than just making something beautiful—it’s about creating with purpose, sustainability, and a deep connection to nature. My work blends handcraft, eco-conscious materials, and digital refinement, proving that sustainability can fuel innovation rather than limit it.
In my presentation, I will share how I integrate raw, naturally sourced materials like seaweed, deadstock cloth, and natural dyes—including indigo—into my creative process. These organic elements bring unexpected, fluid, and textural qualities to my work, creating designs that are both deeply personal and inherently sustainable.”
