Pathways for working together
Pathways, Cyles, Depths and Layers
Design can be like following a pathway through wild landscapes – sometimes the route is clear, sometimes you need to pause, sense, assess and feel for the right direction. There may be times of wide visibility and other times of deep mist.
For circular design engineers and conscious startups, it’s about exploring new possibilities beyond linear thinking, trying different approaches to complex challenges, reflecting on what emerges, and constantly evolving with the living world around you.
The process can feel messy and uncertain, yet it’s deeply purposeful. Like mycelium quietly connecting and nurturing beneath the forest floor, changes often happen in the unseen spaces between what was and what’s becoming.
I’m here as your guide and creative companion, helping you navigate.
Together, with inspiration from the Design Element Compass – we’ll wayfind toward life generating business models, circular products, and systems.
