Innovation and design for a circular future
Limits of the model
The linear model of extraction, production, use and end of life leads to resource overexploitation, waste accumulation, and a high environmental impact. It is urgent to transition toward circular and regenerative models that prioritize responsible materials and promote reuse, repair, and recycling.
A change of focus
It’s not just about creating attractive products and services with strong differentiation and market impact, it’s about rethinking how they are produced, used, and discarded through a life-cycle approach that generates benefits for both users and the planet.
The power of design
When applied effectively, design improves impacts, optimizes resources, and promotes new habits while maintaining the value of materials, components, and products for longer. From material selection to the development of circular systems, design is a powerful tool for building a better future. We want to accompany you in this process.
What we do
More than fifteen years of experience supporting companies and organizations in improving their environmental impact through design, with a balanced positioning between creativity, technical expertise, and environmental knowledge.
-
We are pioneers in the creation of products guided by rigorous principles of circularity. We integrate sustainability as a central element throughout every phase of our process, driven by a deep understanding of life-cycle impacts. We excel in technical development, turning concepts into reality with precision and efficiency. Our thorough research into suppliers and materials ensures the selection of the most responsible and effective options, providing continuous support to our clients every step of the way.
-
We assess the life cycle of products and services to identify key impact areas and provide practical insights for informed environmental decision-making. We analyze resource flows within organizational operations and deliver strategies to improve circularity, aligned with the challenges of each specific sector. We work closely with internal teams to design and implement circular business models and address critical areas with lasting impact.
-
We organize circular design workshops that equip teams across diverse organizations with practical tools for circular innovation. We also give talks on design and sustainability, sharing knowledge and experience with a variety of audiences. We collaborate with educational institutions at different academic levels, inspiring future generations to adopt responsible and forward-thinking practices.
-
We identify and evaluate a wide range of calls for design and circularity research projects at both local and European levels, aligned with the goals of our clients and partners. We provide leadership, support, and guidance throughout the entire application and implementation process, ensuring strong results that help organizations move toward higher-impact solutions and business models.

Developing responsible consumer electronics
We have supported Hune in the technical and strategic development of a line of consumer electronics that aims to become an environmental benchmark within its sector. Single-use plastics have been completely eliminated from the packaging, certified post-consumer plastics with GRS traceability have been introduced, and additional strategies such as modular design and take-back systems have been implemented to enhance the recyclability of electronic products.

Transforming the international rug benchmark toward circularity
Since 2022, we have been supporting Nanimarquina in its transition toward a more circular model, acting as its external sustainability department. Our collaboration covers both strategy and operational implementation, following a systemic approach. Among many initiatives, we have developed environmental analyses (LCA), Environmental Product Declarations (EPD), a digital passport pilot, packaging improvements, and internal training sessions. All of this aims to integrate sustainability at the core of the brand, further strengthening its long-term environmental and social commitment.
