In this live talk, filmmaker Gary Hustwit and environmental design writer Katie Treggiden discussed the new media and sustainability Dezeen Awards categories for which they are overseeing judging.

Moderated by Dezeen's founder and editor-in-chief Marcus Fairs, the talk introduced the judges and the new categories they are judging ahead of Dezeen Awards' standard entry deadline on 2 June.

He has produced 13 feature-length documentaries, including films about German industrial designer Dieter Rams and the Helvetica typeface.

Treggiden, an author and consultant who champions circular design principles, will oversee the judging of three categories which reward buildings, interiors and products that strive to reduce their impact on the planet.

She has more than 20 years of experience in the creative industries and regularly contributes to publications such as Design Milk, The Guardian and Crafts Magazine.

Last year, Treggiden published her fifth book Wasted: When Trash Becomes Treasure, which explores the question: can craft save the world?
