New York Times article review

Eyes on the Prize | Design That Does Good

This article is very interesting and brings about many questions and answers. The article talks about people that are designing for a cause and answer rather then making something that looks cool. The most interesting one that they discuss is about how a designer is making sanitary napkins out of banana leaves because of cost and also that is very earth friendly. Also someone design a bottle that turns saltwater into freshwater for people stranded at sea. This article inspires designing in many ways, to think about what people need and how to design something that will change society for the good and also be conscience of the sustainability of the product.
