Vegan design is the use of vegan products in such contexts as interior design, fashion design, household goods, and the arts. Such products are also known as humane or cruelty-free and "[do] not originate from any living creature, [are] not an animal byproduct and [are] not tested on animals."

Vegan design is seen as an outgrowth of the vegan food movement, based on related ethical stances and claims of sustainability. Not all designers who practice vegan design, however, agree on the underlying claims, such as those for sustainability.

Veganism can be seen as a different lifestyle, because it is a different type of philosophy and it has manifested in large cities. It has impact industry since a notable target group of people have made this grow steadily.

In the Salzburg University of Applied Sciences, Austria there is a study of publishing series known as DE RE SA, which is the research institute of the school of Design and Product Management. Students from this school, do not only study or are educated in creation, but also management, business administration, consumer research as well as in technical and social subjects.

What is increasing is the amount of people that are living a vegan lifestyle. When people start to be vegetarian, they want to follow with having a vegan lifestyle. Not only because of the physical and mental health, but for pure pleasure, some vegans decide to follow their own kind of nutrition[1].

These target groups may be divided into different categories, those are very strict vegans, modern vegans, conscious vegetarians, and flexitarians[2].

Because of the debate in climate change, topics that have become increasingly important are the ones of diet change and the reduction of animal products in both, public and academic discourses[3].

History[edit]

The first-ever exhibition dealing with veganism took place in Eindhoven, the Netherlands in October 2016. During Salone Del Mobile 2018, an exhibition called Vegan Design or The Art of Reduction brought the subject to the forefront.

Proponents and other practitioners of vegan design include such designers as Deborah DiMare, Philippe Starck, Stella McCartney and Chloe Bullock.

Materials used by vegan designers are often plant-based. Examples include leather substitutes such as Piñatex, made from pineapple, and Apple Ten Lork, made from apple skins and cores. Also, feathers and wool are replaced with materials such as buckwheat, bamboo, and cotton.
