Theories: Cradle to Cradle

Cradle to Cradle is a design philosophy focused on creating products that are environmentally sustainable. Instead of following the traditional "cradle to grave" model—where products are disposed of after use—this approach emphasizes designing products that can be fully recycled or repurposed, becoming resources for new products. It promotes using eco-friendly materials, reducing waste, and considering the entire lifecycle of a product from the outset. The goal is to mimic natural systems where waste is minimized, and materials circulate efficiently, leading to a more sustainable and healthier environment.
