Abstract

Our world is changing rabidly due to the rapid economic development, and the resulted significant increase in the amount of produced wastes. As a result; the environmental benefits of recycling have become a major component of waste management programs. Thus, there was a need for new teaching methodology and materials in the educational sector that allows the crucial implementation of the recycling concept in the creation of all the new designs and products. Then students can learn how to create new designs from recycled materials since it became essential and a must. Thus, this research will discuss the attempt conducted by the Design department, in Effat university- KSA, to implement the recycle concept in their design studio-1. The created designs will be demonstrated and analyzed from the aesthetically and practicality points of view. As a result, this paper argues that it is applicable to make recycled products more attractive to the future generation, regarding the recovering and reusing waste products?from household use, and thereby reducing their burden on the environment.
