What's in it
This repository provides a comprehensive toolkit and dataset for implementing circular economy principles in outdoor public spaces. It introduces a multi-level framework categorized into Design Space (S) , Product Design (P) , and Material (M) strategies. The collection includes a visual card set for designers, a detailed strategic overview, and a validated dataset of over 150 real-world circular interventions across Europe. 1. Circular Strategy Cards: A Visual Toolkit for DesignersA set of 11+ design cards featuring visual prompts and keywords to facilitate brainstorming for circular urban interventions. The cards cover five spatial strategies (S1–S5), eleven product design strategies (P1–P11), and eight material-level considerations (M1–M8). 2. Overview of Circular Design Strategies (Technical Text)A detailed guide providing definitions, environmental goals, and circularity benefits for each strategy in the framework. It explains the "why" behind actions like "Cascading Materials" or "Accommodating Future Needs" to reduce material extraction and carbon footprints. 3. Circular Implementation Dataset (CSV/Excel)A structured database of 150+ entries documenting practical examples …
