Designing a circular future
0 likes51 views
This document discusses how 3D printing can foster circular design and the circular economy. It notes that 3D printing enables complex designs, less waste in production, and closed loops. It also addresses barriers to implementing the circular economy, including technological, cultural, regulatory, and market barriers, and how circular design can help overcome technological barriers. The document considers how 3D printing and digital manufacturing could enable mass customization and longer lasting products to support the circular economy. Finally, it frames design as a process that aims to modify reality through tangible outcomes and discusses the designer's role in integrating technical aspects with a socio-technical focus.
