Abstract
In the context of the global climate crisis and sustainability, design disciplines must contribute to new strategies that decrease carbon practice emissions. It is quite essential to reduce carbon emissions in the visual communication field by digital and physical design sub-disciplines, such as digital media design or packaging design.

In the realm of digital minimalism, we discuss practices in web and user interface design that conserve energy, minimize data transfer, and are environmentally friendly. This approach has been explained to reduce the size of webpages in comparison with eliminating unnecessary elements from the webpage [2], [3]. Artificial designs from the field of sustainable packaging design were evaluated by selecting material, life cycle approach and minimal esthetic design principles to show how it can contribute for recycling both during production and after consumation. The research highlights the importance of combining digital and physical design activities to enable user-friendly, environmentally friendly, and circular product design. In summary, this is a pivotal point and shared responsibility to move towards the ecological obligation of the designers for a near zero-carbon future in visual communication — The holistic synergy between minimalism of the digital world and SEO sustainable packaging design proposed as an essential aspect of this integration.
