Synopsis

Edited by Joe Gibbs, Circular Materials celebrates the growing movement of reuse and innovation across fashion, design, and architecture. Showcasing 40–50 pioneering projects, it highlights how designers transform production waste, recycled, and upcycled materials into visionary creations. 

Organised by material origin, each chapter features a standout case study that exemplifies sustainable ingenuity. Together, these stories reveal how a new generation of designers is shaping a circular future: one built on creativity, responsibility, and reclaimed resources.
