Lifestyle and recreation

One of the key issue we face is to reconcile the need to reduce the levels of energy and environmental resources that we consume, while at the same time maintaining and improving quality of life for all.
This section covers the challenges that exist in providing a sustainable route for people to live richer and more varied lives.
Creative industries
Continuing innovation to give new options to designers, artists and architects.
Household

Sporting technology
Develop new materials that enable higher performance and bring a sense of well-being to the wider and ageing population.
Advanced and sustainable electronics
Coupling improvements in electronic devices with sustainable product design.
Textiles
Encouraging a move away from a conventional, low-cost, disposable fashion culture to new systems which provide design scope, along with environmental sustainability.
