Abstract
“Seed-based jewelry” is apart of material can be differentiate from the physical factors that must be present, an art form. The shape and color of the jewelry and the materials used and blended with flows when worn all come together into an artistic statement. Within the realm of jewelry design, technology development and industrial revolution cause global environmental problems and natural resource crisis on earth. Mix material is apparently reflected to enhance resource usage sufficiency. Therefore, quite a few environmental protection policies in the world have been made to lower environmental damage. “Reduce, reuse, and recycle” definitely becomes a new life trend related to that “Recycle and Re-make new jewellery from old pieces, metal can be melted down and gemstone can always be re-used.” Firstly, this study utilizes both quality and style to be the foundation of sustainable jewelry design. Secondly, this study adopts the sustainable design model (SDM) to inspect the sustainable design factors considered for the application of “seed-based jewelry” in design appearance. Furthermore, the researcher will develop methods to ensure the achievement of “seed-based jewelry” in investigational study. By using SDM on “seed-based jewelry,” the study will provide improved results from incorporating mix material to the design. Finally, this research will be beneficial to government agencies that are directly and indirectly involved in enhancing the jewelry design business in Malaysia.
