    Is circularity worth pursuing?

    Discover industry tools and resources for circular design, as Avi Rajagopal and Samantha Sager discuss actionable steps we can take toward tackling the challenges discussed throughout this season of Deep Green. How can we make an impact on an individual level? How can we educate ourselves and those around us? What organizations can we turn to for guidance? Incredible tools, research, and innovations are helping the industry move in the right direction but to meet the moment we will have to shift away from our culture of consumption and redefine the roles of architects and designers in shaping a sustainable future. Hear from Rajagopal on his hopes for the journey forward.     Chapters  Review of the principles of circularity  How can we pursue circularity as individuals?  How can we pursue circularity as a community?  Industry resources and tools  Rethinking the designer’s role    Resources  Salvage Superstar: Renovation Angel  Rheaply Brings Ingenuity to Recycling Building Materials  Arup’s Circular Buildings Toolkit  Two Platforms Help Designers Specify Low-Carbon Interiors  Build Reuse   Deep Green is produced by Samantha Sager, Wize Grazette, Lauren Volker, Rachel Senatore, and Hannah Viti, and is part of the SURROUND podcast network.

    How can we move materials toward circularity? | A bonus conversation with Andrew Dent

    In this special bonus episode, Avi Rajagopal sits down with materials expert Dr. Andrew Dent. As executive vice president of research at Material ConneXion, which for 25 years has been empowering designers with access to innovative materials, Dent says he has seen increasing excitement from his clients around sustainability over the past decade. But making the most responsible choices in the world of materials can be very complex. Listen as he shares how he navigates these tricky waters, the challenges with recycling, his optimism around chemical recycling, why he’s more excited about new processes than the materials themselves, and more. Chapters A little bit about Material ConneXion The responsible materials landscape Recycled and renewable materials What is chemical recycling? Biobased and biodegradable materials The promise of processes Resources Material ConneXion Deep Green is produced by Rachel Senatore, Lauren Volker, and Hannah Viti, and is part of the SURROUND podcast network.

    Can biobased materials save us?

    Learn how we can deepen the connection between the built environment and the natural world, as Avi Rajagopal and Samantha Sager discuss the third principle of circular design: regenerating nature. Navigating the complexities of where materials are derived from, how they are made, and what happens to them at the end of their useful life is crucial as architects and interior designers work to support a more circular economy. What defines a biobased product? How do we responsibly source these materials? Is a biobased plastic always biodegradable? Hear from Rajagopal on the ideas and experiments coming out of the industry designed to return more materials go back into their natural cycles and loops on this planet.    Chapters  The third principle of circularity: regenerating nature  What does biobased actually mean?  Biobased vs. Biodegradable  Success story: a completely biodegradable chair  Responsibly sourcing biobased materials  Infrastructure and composting    Resources  PROWL Urges Designers to Consider the Afterlife of Products  Model No. Furniture  Natural Habitat: A Tranquil Retreat in Cold Spring    Deep Green is produced by Samantha Sager, Wize Grazette, Lauren Volker, Rachel Senatore, and Hannah Viti, and is part of the SURROUND podcast network.

  8. Can we recycle and reuse our way out of our materials problem?

    14/11/2023

    Can we recycle and reuse our way out of our materials problem?

    Explore the intricacies of material recycling, as Avi Rajagopal and Samantha Sager pick up where they left off last week, focusing on the second principle of a circular economy: circulating products and materials at their highest value. Are all materials suitable for recycling? How can we make sure that recycled or reused materials perform to the standards of commercial settings? How can we better design products and buildings for their end of life? Hear from Rajagopal on some innovative ways our industry is circulating products and materials, recycling more responsibly — and giving nature a much-needed break.    Chapters Circulating products and materials at their highest value Recycling obstacles (incentive, policy, and more) Success story: Nylon The hierarchy of recycling strategies Designing for disassembly    Resources  METROPOLIS Climate Toolkit   The Ellen MacArthur Foundation  METROPOLIS July/August 2023: This New Upholstery Line Features Yarn Made From Marine Plastic    Deep Green is produced by Samantha Sager, Wize Grazette, Lauren Volker, Rachel Senatore, and Hannah Viti, and is part of the SURROUND Podcast Network.
