The Impact: <p>Without actively managed storage and shared resource systems, yarns, fabrics, tools, and small material quantities are often underused, duplicated, or lost. This leads to unnecessary purchasing, inefficient use of resources, and avoidable waste. Well-designed systems support circulation of materials, reduce overconsumption, and enable more equitable and efficient access to shared resources.</p>
Details
Workshops actively design and maintain storage and shared resource systems that support efficient use, circulation, and redistribution of materials and tools.
Organisation of space influences behaviour by prioritising access to existing and lower-impact materials, reducing reliance on new inputs.
Systems support reuse of partial quantities, redistribution across cohorts or workshops, and responsible management of shared resources.
