Three stories: How we apply circular design
September 10, 2019
Waste and pollution are not accidents. They are the consequences of decisions made at the design stage. To change the system we need to change how we design. This session will gather some of the most inspiring stories from the generation already leading the way. We will be joined by Seetal Solanki, founder of Ma-tt-er, design entrepreneur and author of the book Why Materials Matter and Kamonnart Ong, co-founder of Moreloop, fashion designer & lecturer at Chulalongkorn Design University. We will also hear from the winners of the RSA Student Design Awards 2019, Maire Kane and Hannah Grogan, who applied circular economy principles to design a reusable medical device. Do you want to be part of the transformation? Don't miss this session.
