On October 17th, the NEXT GEN DESIGN Workshop on circular economy took place at the Disseny Hub Barcelona, led by *HOLON and aimed at young designers between 18 and 30 years old. The workshop offered tools to integrate the principles of circularity in design projects, with an emphasis on reuse, digital traceability and the sustainable business model.
With two case studies from different sectors, participants learnt how to apply circular methodologies in areas such as food and fashion, adapting the design of products and services to the demands of a more sustainable future.
