The Sustainable Futures Design Lab is a collective of University of Kentucky researchers dedicated to socially responsible, critically engaged design that drives meaningful impact in Kentucky and beyond. The Sustainable Futures Design Lab was founded by Rebekah Radtke, an associate professor in the School of Interiors, and Jeff Fugate, an associate professor of Extension in the School of Architecture, both in the UK College of Design. The lab now operates in partnership with TRUST Hub.
By bringing together scholars from across disciplines, the lab fosters new collaborations, shares resources and supports creative scholarship that is deeply connected to community needs and global challenges.
