Enlightenment of design education by ecological design

Any form of design coordinated with the ecological process and trying to minimize its destructive impact on the environment can be referred to as an ecological design. Through investigation in the new concept of ecological design as well as the design principle of the entire system etc, this paper points out that design education serves an irreplaceable role for ecological protection, and ecological design can be realized in an all-round way only through the reform of design education, the enhancement of trans-disciplinary intersection and fusion, and the formation of correct ecological values in students etc.
