Abstract

This study investigates the integration of environmental conservation principles in university craft and artistry design courses, focusing on the use of recycled plastic bottles. It examines how this innovative approach effectively incorporates environmental concepts into art education, enhancing student creativity and environmental awareness. Through observational methods, the study explores student behaviours in material selection, design processes, and the application of recycled materials, revealing a preference for using beverage plastic bottles for their accessibility and malleability. The study also highlights the role of art in promoting environmental consciousness. It suggests that such practices not only enhance technical and creative skills but also foster environmental responsibility among future designers. This research underscores the necessity of multidisciplinary approaches in art and design education, advocating for experiential learning methods and the use of digital platforms for resource sharing and creative expression. The study contributes to the discourse on sustainable design education, emphasizing the importance of nurturing environmentally responsible designers to address global environmental challenges.
