This e-book about Circular Design summarises the extensive research our editorial team has been doing on the circular economy and circular design since 2017.
We could not anticipate how fast these themes would become crucial to our lives and survival.

It has been a really interesting experience to work in this e-book while in quarantine. After all, we are obliged to stop, to rethink and to redesign our ways of consuming and producing. Isn’t this what the circular approach to economy and design has always asked us for? 
Also, yesterday it was the 50th Earth Day and I found myself stopping and thinking back to all the amazing places I have visited, to all the beautiful things earth gives to us everyday. And now more than ever I realized how we should be thankful to our planet. We will be back traveling soon, in the meantime we could use this time to stop and think about how we can treat our earth better once we are back, this time 💚

 

We NEED to explore new ways to create, to produce, to cooperate, if we want
1) to respect the earth
2) to be back living the life we love
We are all seeing very clearly how the linear economy model is not working anymore, and are we sure it’s only because of the virus? Ok I am not an economist at all, but I did not know that an alternative already exists and it is called circular economy. Also, what I know for sure, is that the decisions we make when designing a product, system, or service, will determine 80% of their environmental impact, and it is A LOT.  That’s why we believe design (and, together with it – creativity) has really a key role in this transitional moment.
Last, I believe that the brands who will be able to embrace this change first, will also be the ones which will perform better in the post-pandemic times. As I told you, I am a really practical person and – at the end – is also about finding new ways to make our businesses work in a world which is totally changing and that we HAVE to respect.

We asked first to the designers. Listen to their words and be inspired.
