, according to the results of a recent survey by

Metropolis magazine. Fifty-four percent of 500 Web site respondents agree that within 5 years, to be considered “good,” any design will have to address sustainability, and a whopping 93% of practicing design professionals say they would like to know more about green design. Education, though, poses a barrier. While 92% of design educators and 86% of students are interested in green design, only 14% of students say the topic is discussed in studio.
