AbstractAbstract
The Third United Nations Ocean Conference was held in Nice from 9 to 13 June.Ocean issues require the design industry to face both material spills, coastal resilience, logistics, tourism and community livelihoods.
2025 Timeline and Evidence
The conference, co-hosted by France and Costa Rica, focused on the implementation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 14.
Marine pollution, ecological protection, financing and scientific cooperation are the main topics.
The material selection at the end of the product will enter a larger water system through production, use and waste.

In-depth research
“Ocean-friendly materials” can easily stay on the label without supply chain and recycling conditions.Blue design should be extended from single products to the relationship between ports, urban drainage, fisheries, packaging and consumer behavior.
Design Response Design Response
01 Draw the leakage path of the material from the source to the water body.
Incorporation of coastal residents and industry users into the program verification.
Prioritize the reduction of unnecessary materials, rather than replacing only them.

AURELIS observation
The scale of ocean design is expanding: the most effective innovations may not be new products, but services and infrastructure that prevent problems from entering the ocean.
