'Enabling innovation with circular design'

Designing for a circular economy means designing for a system that moves away from extraction to get closer to regeneration. It means that, when designing, we keep the three principles of the circular economy in mind, at all times: 1. eliminating waste and pollution, 2. keeping products and materials in use, and 3. regenerating natural systems. Whilst product designers, industrial designers, and architects can directly relate to those principles, what is the role that service designers and digital product designers can play in shifting the economy towards a circular model?
