With the increasingly severe environmental problems, more and more people pay attention to the concept of sustainable
design, looking for the design method to let people and nature live in harmony. Due to the acceleration of
urbanization and the large amount of waste surge, the traditional waste recycling technology can not adapt to the
requirements of urban waste recycling. There are still some defects in the design of waste separation and recovery facilities,
so it is urgent to redesign them. The design of the article is based on sustainable design concept and systematic
design method, the current situation of garbage sorting recycling, municipal waste recycling research, customer
demand research, recycling label design way, garbage collection, garbage recycling facilities design and other aspects
of practice and explore, from the each link of recycling, gives a kind of high efficient, beautiful, sustainable urban
garbage sorting recycling system.

Sustainable Design 4.0: methods and techniques of the contemporary designer in the knowledge society
When confronted with the problems of contemporaneity, designers often tend to use their own creativity as an
answer to a specific need, maintaining divided design fields and methods, this leads to a lack of attention to actual
society problems and goals, which have already been defined and highlighted from UN – with the 17 Sustainable
Development Goals – and from the theoreticians of the industry 4.0.
The research method proposes the convergence between innovative production technology – such as open
technologies – and different design approach, the parametric one and the participatory one, because their hybridization
could lead to the design of artifacts through a unique system and, as well, customized on the need of each user
emerged through the participation of the same.
It is clear that a convergence like this will have an important impact on the society, thanks to the attention on
sustainability, inclusivity and iterability, of the process and products.

The research analyses the new aesthetic sensibility that arises with sustainable project, in order to answer more specifically the following questions: what influence does the culture of sustainability have on the aesthetics of contemporary design? What are the future directions of the design project in relation to the possible declinations of the relationship between ecology/aesthetics/technology?
The post-Darwinian idea of evolutionary pluralism influences sustainable design, with significant implications in our times from the point of view of the variety of methods, technologies and aesthetic parameters (M. Ceruti, 1989). The idea of a one-best-way project is extraneous to the logic of design for sustainability. Eco-sustainable design is expressed above all as a variety of strategies, an open codification of ways to travel and experiment through the project. The contribution investigates the relationship between sustainable design, aesthetics and technological imagery, to arrive at a critical analysis of a series of design aesthetics in a context such as Anthropocene.

In today's society, in addition to the material aspect of supporting human existence, it is more of a spiritual level of conceptual things. Based on the review and research of China's 40 years of reform and opening up, combined with today's design trends. Green design is an inevitable development trend of interior design, and contemporary design shifts from “people-oriented” to “natural-oriented”. Green design is an attitude that requires people to build a sense of greenness in their minds. In the green interior design, it is required to consider the coordination between the building and the surrounding environment, and use various energy sources in the natural world to create a sustainable living environment for human beings. It provides new ideas and new perspectives for the sustainable development of China's design.
