Circular design
Circular design is much more than just reuse and refurbishment. We help you define a strategy for circular design.

Working with circular design only brings advantages – both for the planet and for you as a client:
- Financial profits.
- Significantly reduced climate impact.
- Reduced waste of resources.
- Contributing more broadly to the UN’s global goals.
- Interiors that last over time.
Our goals for your project
- Reduce the total requirement for resource extraction and new furniture and minimise the share of inappropriate substances & emissions.
- Maximise the share of reused products and recycled materials.
- Only employ products & materials that last for multiple lifecycles and contain a high share of renewable materials.
- Facilitate the circular economy through new business models, systematic processes and information management.
We take the holistic view!
- Precise needs and site analyses.
- Inclusive design processes.
- Long-term solutions – design quality.
- A new vision of reuse through inventory and strategic planning (a resource-focused culture).
- Requirements for the environment, quality, flexibility and design value.
- Business models, information management and processes that promote circular furniture flows.

We love recycling! But offers much more than that:
- Strategic circular design.
- Analysis, project management, purchasing / redesign / renovation, storage, etc.
- Resource-focused design.
- General, flexible, resource-optimized and customized solutions.
- Architectural quality.
- Spatial design related to goals and vision, with regard to the building's conditions, legal requirements, functions and working environment in a well-functioning whole that will withstand the test of time.
