(Archive) interCHANGES | LIVING ENVIRONMENT x THRIVING PLANET

How can we shape the environment that we live in, while enabling our planet to thrive?

What if we say yes to working towards a fully circular, bio based industry? Then which essential challenges are we encountering along the way? What are potential approaches? With who can and should we take required steps? Closing the loop between suppliers, designers and clients, what entails our personal future role? And how will we collaborate as shared owners?
