Circular design is a design approach that aligns with the principles of the circular economy, aiming to eliminate waste and pollution, keep products and materials in use, and regenerate natural systems. It involves designing products, systems, and services that are restorative and regenerative by intention and practice.
Rather than following the traditional linear model of "take–make–dispose", circular design considers the entire lifecycle of a product from the outset, with the goal of creating long-lasting value and minimising environmental impact.
