circular design and supply chain innovation lab.

Overview

When we create products, we don’t ask where our products are coming from, what people are involved at each step of the way, and where our products go at the end of their life. However, as climate change has begun to rapidly impact our lives, there is a clear need to re-think how we might design for sustainability.

By engaging with Sustain Tomorrow, the Circular Design and Supply chain innovation lab allows us to ask critical questions at each step of the design process. We bring our facilitators from the Stanford d.school and Harvard Innovation lab to teach you how to create systems maps, utilize LCA software, bring rapid prototyping into your work to create more sustainable products and services. Our thought provoking, systemic change, interactive, and collaborative 4-day training will help you design with circularity in mind, harness collective creativity, and take action immediately. At the end of these workshops, you will receive a systems map, a video of each team member’s prototype, and detailed feedback on how to enhance your product and service design.
