Let's celebrate the incredible journey of technology. Think about it: From the invention of the wheel to the dawn of the internet, every breakthrough has shaped our lives in profound ways. From the first spark of innovation to today's digital age, technology has transformed the way we live, work, and connect with the world. But, as we take this moment to appreciate the evolution of technology, it’s time we ask ourselves, whether we are optimizing it or misusing it.

Innovation to us is not a big ‘wow’ or a ‘eureka’ moment. It is a function of the process we follow, where right from the time we get the brief to the decisions made at every stage of the project—whether it is concept, design development, detailing, execution—so, as long as the right questions are being asked at each stage, one can innovate. As Senior Team Lead Anusha Pulapaka explains, this approach helped us develop the upcoming visitor centre at the Mehrangarh Fort as a resilient, sustainable architectural system that is adaptable to future changes of programme, designed through a forward-looking approach to circularity. 𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗪𝗮𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 Innovation to us is a way of being; it is a practice that we bring in to work everyday. We believe that bold visions are a result of a continuous and relentless pursuit of the elusive state of perfection. #StudioLotus #Innovation #Design #DesignLife #StudioCulture

Join Us at UPMADE IN EE NYCxDESIGN - our exploration of Estonia’s design contributions to sustainability unfolds in 4 engaging sections: Tradition & Craftsmanship • Upcycling • Recycling • Biomaterials. BIOMATERIALS Prepare to be amazed as you explore the frontier of material science through the lens of Estonian design. Highlighting adoption of cutting-edge technologies, we showcase materials designed to sidestep the waste cycle entirely. Estonian designers leverage their tech savviness to experiment with innovative production methods, giving rise to unique and often groundbreaking materials. Featured are bioplastics, natural fiber composites, and other sustainable alternatives that aim to replace traditional materials with eco-friendly options. This exploration not only emphasizes the innovative spirit of Estonian design but also marks a significant step towards sustainability and recyclability, setting new standards for environmentally conscious design. MEET THE DESIGNER The materials MYCEEN is developing are a perfect example of circular economy principles. Mycelium composites are grown in an energy efficient production process by combining mushroom mycelium and organic byproducts. As a result these materials are carbon-storing and have functional properties that allows them to potentially replace plastics and problematic composites in construction and interiors. Myceen’s design products have attracted global interest which confirms the solution’s current relevance and need for the future. #upmadeinEE #NYCxDESIGN #estoniandesignhouse #upmadeinESTONIA #estoniancultureabroad #estoniandesign #biomaterials #ParasolProjects #myceen #siimkarro 

excellent report

The Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) is reshaping the manufacturing industry by making sustainable products the standard within the EU market. Specific product categories, including furniture, will now be governed by delegated acts under the ESPR. In collaboration with partners from the entire business ecosystem for circular furniture flows, RISE Research Institutes of Sweden, Chalmers Industriteknik and Antrop has conducted a thorough exploration of these advancements in the project "Product Passport as an Enabler for Circular Flows of Furniture." Discover the project's comprehensive findings in the final report below. The interactive report (found here: https://lnkd.in/dSqVu5me) also features links to prototypes and additional bonus materials for further exploration. The project was funded by Vinnova and Västra Götalandsregionen. Learn more about it here: https://lnkd.in/daDKB_5q #ESPR #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #Manufacturing #Furniture
