Book excerpt: The Big Book of Green Design explores the specific techniques and methods that graphic designers are employing worldwide to make their business a more earth-friendly one.

The results are often surprising, innovative, and new, and The Big Book of Green Design features the best of these earth-friendly designs. Mainly focusing on printed materials, but also showcasing examples of trade show environments, repurposed designs, and the new “anti-packaging” trend, the book showcases over 450 examples of marketing and collateral materials produced using environmentally favorable methods. With a foreword by Eric Benson, an expert on sustainable procedures within graphic design, The Big Book of Green Design is very much a “see what your colleagues are doing” idea-sharing, inspiration-generating compilation for agencies, freelance designers, printers, and other creative professionals.
