Abstract

Design-Driven Material Innovation is espoused as a win-win solution, for consumers, economies and circularity. However, there is little empirical research on its methods or outcomes. This paper presents the results of an ethnographic study that examined the first phases of a design-driven project in the field of textile fibre development.
