Circularity – re-using end-of-life materials or rekindling utility and value from wastes - is sustainability’s holy grail. Yet materials seldom move in ways imagined by circularity models. The ambition of the Circulatory Materials project is to mine this gap - between what circularity is imagined to be and trajectories of materials in practice - for an extended interdisciplinary conversation about the potential and limits of circularity as an aspirational, ethical and practical framework.
