Implementing Circularity in Interior Design

Our interior spaces remains trapped in a persistent and costly system of frequent renovation, demolition, and disposal, resulting in an unsustainable churn of materials. While circular design offers a path forward, the challenge isn't just designing for circularity; it’s creating the network of relationships needed to make it work, connecting the many stakeholders responsible for shaping, operating, and renewing interior spaces.
Our panel of stakeholders across the value chain will examine what is needed to really implement the circularity loop - to keep materials in circulation, reduce waste, lower costs, create jobs, and transform the interiors industry from a linear model of consumption to a truly circular one. Join us for a lively and provocative discussion.
