The relationship between packaging and sustainability has caused the evolution of literature towards the minimization of environmental damage. The task of packaging professionals is becoming more demanding, as they need to collect information from distinct topics to stay up to date. The aim of this research is to gather information on packaging in the sustainability context to provide a systemic view of the contents, to identify opportunities, and define guidelines for packaging design. A systematic literature review of 472 papers was performed. The first step was a bibliographic search using Pack *, Sustainab *, and eco * as keywords. Secondly, the content analysis revealed the emergence of nine categories grouped in four clusters. These categories and nineteen subthemes were considered research opportunities. Going beyond the coding units of the content analysis, we have used context units to propose (i) the gathering of technical procedures to support the design phases of sustainable packaging; and (ii) the proposition of a framework based on the life cycle stages and design phases. At last, we have provided insights and guidelines that can be useful for packaging professionals.

This study aims to generate a referential basis on which the designer can reflect about and explore scenarios during the structural and graphic packaging projects. “Packing Radar (RE)” has been compiled over years of research as it is spread across different sources and areas of expertise. This qualitative research uses content analysis and expert's opinions. The (RE) proposition shows its potential for improvement and diagnosis of sustainable packaging projects, of teaching activities and packaging professionals graduation.

This work aims to create an application capable of allowing the citizen the redefinition of urban spaces by visually manifested virtual compositions. Therefore, this research presents articulations among the concepts of: tactical urbanism, collage and interaction design. For the methodological procedures, the authors: Rogers, Sharp and Preece (2013), Garrett (2011) and Munari (2008), which are cross-referenced and make up the proposed method. The development of the project went through three fundamental points: i) verification of the proposal through collage dynamics with students of Architecture and Urbanism of the University of Santa Cruz do Sul; ii) construction of a prototype for evaluation; iii) validation of the project with representatives of three groups of the 13º Congresso Brasileiro de Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento em Design, Univille, Joinville (SC) 05 a 08 de novembro de 2018 target audience. Finally, the visual simulations developed and presented to the evaluators obtained a maximum score, answering the research question that it is possible to contribute to facilitate the requalification of the urban spaces from the viewpoint of the user through a Visual Design project.
