About us

May Again works with circular and upcycling designers to help their work go further - into more projects, more contexts and, ultimately, more lives.

We create opportunities for their work to be discovered, placed and kept in circulation, while exploring the systems that can help circular design become a stronger and more viable business.

Through Context Capsules, curated placements and collaborative interventions, we connect distinctive circular design with interiors, organisations and people who see value in what already carries a story.

At the same time, we are exploring what happens after a piece enters its first context: how identity, provenance and use can travel with it, allowing furniture to remain visible, relevant and valuable as circumstances change.

Because circular design shouldn't end with the first sale. We work towards a future where designers can keep creating value from the things they make and where those things can keep creating value wherever they go next.

Our approach

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER YOUR WORK IS SOLD?

A red metal outdoor table, made from pre-concumer waste, with a perforated top surface and a wooden tag hanging from it. The table is on a concrete surface. The table has an object identity.

A circular piece is designed to last. But once it enters its first home, hotel, office or public space, the designer often loses sight of what happens next.

May Again is currently testing a new way for circular and upcycling designers to stay connected to the life of their work - as pieces are used, cared for, moved and eventually enter new contexts.

Our first live pilot is now running with Rover and Nicola Beger. A QR code gives each piece a persistent identity where its origin, journey, care and future chapters can grow over time.

And now we're looking for more designers to test it with us.

If you create circular or upcycled furniture and want to explore what could happen beyond the first sale, I'd love to hear from you.

When Circular Design Finds The Right Context

“The Inspiration Capsule in my pop-up perfectly complements the sustainable story behind my clothing, which is made from deadstock fabrics from well-known designers. My customers immediately understand the connection. That’s what makes this capsule so strong!”

-- Francine Heirbaut, Mod’Arte

Excess isn’t waste, it’s the start of interiors worth talking about
