Abstract

Faced with the state of planetary emergency due to the current environmental situation, responsible behaviour is required, both from governments and people. The excessive consumption of goods leads to an aggressive environmental impact that is reflected in the increasing depletion of natural resources and polluting waste.


Design, as a profession, has always embraced the precepts of sustainable development, participating with specific strategies in each phase of the product life cycle. This paper presents another alternative through which design can contribute to sustainability: emotionally durable design (EDE).


From the generation of lasting relationships between people and products, the EDE intends to extend their useful life and postpone the moment of their elimination or replacement. In this way, it contributes to reducing the generation of waste and new products.
