DNA Design Sustainability Actions

Sustainability design practice

Our sustainability design practice helps organisations start or accelerate the transition to a sustainably cleaner, healthier and more socially inclusive future — by reviewing and redesigning operations, services and products.

Human-centred design approach

The change required to shift New Zealand’s business sector into one that restores and sustains Aotearoa will require significant human effort, investment and engagement. The need to change needs to be met with ways to change which makes the need to design solutions based around humans needs, capability and usability critical.

Worked on recycling collection

Auckland Council were in the midst of rolling out a new recycling and refuse collection scheme. To ensure the scheme would be delivered successfully, customer research and mapping exercise identified opportunities and challenges that could be acted upon both in the short term and over the long term.

Conservation portal project

Auckland Council needed a central platform to unify the efforts of various community groups, businesses and agencies and increase the effectiveness of the conservation work they are undertaking. The research work identified that the audiences had a core set of common needs, which could be addressed via a single web portal, developed in partnership with Mana Whenua.

Conservation service model

Auckland Council was seeking to better connect the community to Auckland’s natural environment and enable them to protect and restore the city's biodiversity. We explored and validated a new service model that would see the community better able to act while maximising access and availability to Council resources.
