The Circular Design Guide
Now is the most exciting time to be an innovator.
Today, in industries like fashion and plastics packaging, products and systems are designed in such a way that more than 80% of material flows are destined for landfill, incineration or leaked into natural environments. Once things are designed, it’s hard to reverse: “We can’t unscramble an omelette”
With circular design, we can prevent the creation of waste and pollution right at the start.
There are the old tools for design that still need to be used.
And then there are the New Tools to show us that our design desires are only as narrow as our imagination.

Creativity has never been more important. The global economy is stuttering and disruptive technologies challenge established business models.
A new mind-set for business is emerging. It’s worth around a trillion dollars, will drive innovation in tomorrow’s companies, and reshape every part of our lives.
The design thinking approach that underpins this guide allows you to explore new ways to create sustainable, resilient, long-lasting value in the circular economy – giving you the creative confidence to redesign the world around you.
No one has the answers about the future. But we hope this Circular Design guide helps you reframe your ideas and mindset, ask some good questions, take on closed-loop projects, and start to see the opportunities.
The Circular Design Guide asks: What if we could redesign everything?
