Lyle's regenerative design, the model in its broadest sense is not limited to industrial design and manufacturing it can be applied to many aspects of human civilization such as urban environments, buildings, economics and social systems. Building off the whole systems approach of John T. It is a holistic, economic, industrial and social framework that seeks to create systems that are not only efficient but also essentially waste free. The term itself is a play on the popular corporate phrase "cradle to grave", implying that the C2C model is sustainable and considerate of life and future generations-from the birth, or "cradle", of one generation to the next generation, versus from birth to death, or "grave", within the same generation.Ĭ2C suggests that industry must protect and enrich ecosystems and nature's biological metabolism while also maintaining a safe, productive technical metabolism for the high-quality use and circulation of organic and technical nutrients.
The current economic system, the current solution (the 3Rs), and the C2C framework as an alternative solutionĬradle-to-cradle design (also referred to as 2CC2, C2C, cradle 2 cradle, or regenerative design) is a biomimetic approach to the design of products and systems that models human industry on nature's processes, where materials are viewed as nutrients circulating in healthy, safe metabolisms.
