Life Cycle Thinking - Christchurch Workshop

The Christchurch workshop was held on Thursday with a reasonable turn out. Most participants were experienced designers or design engineers so it was an ideal audience for the 3rd Life Cycle Thinking workshops.

The CPIT was an ideal venue, although we had to swap lecture theatres half way through the session.

An interesting outcome of the session was the emergence of a pattern in some of the outcomes. After 3 complete sessions it appears that groups started discussing (without steering) similar life cycle issues. I will draw these examples in the coming weeks and think about what (if anything) this may mean.
