Our approach.
We believe circular design needs more than good intentions and better materials. It needs the right opportunities, contexts and systems around it to go further.
That’s why we work closely with circular and upcycling designers rather than building a catalogue of products. We get to know the work, the thinking behind it and where it could create real value - then look for meaningful ways to connect it with projects, places and people.
Context matters. When a piece is not only seen, but used and experienced in a real environment, its value becomes easier to understand. Through curated placements and collaborations, we create opportunities for circular design to prove itself beyond the studio.
And we don’t believe the story should end once a piece has been placed or sold.
Technology supports our work quietly in the background, helping us explore how an object’s identity, origin, care and journey can remain connected to it over time. As pieces move between people and places, that continuity can open new possibilities for visibility, recontextualisation and long-term value.
Because circular design needs more than a different way of making things. It also needs a different way of bringing them into the world - and keeping them there.
Our approach takes shape through a set of connected services, adapted to the designer, opportunity and context.
Who We Work with
For Circular Designers
You’re already rethinking how furniture is made. May Again focuses on what can help your work go further once it exists.
We work with circular and upcycling designers to create opportunities for their work to be discovered, placed and experienced in real contexts and to explore how its identity, story and value can continue beyond the first placement or sale.
Through Context Capsules, collaborations and our growing network, we connect designers with cultural, hospitality, retail, public and interior projects where their work can make sense. At the same time, we are developing and testing ways to keep circular pieces visible and traceable as they move through different
contexts over time.
Working with May Again can mean:
Opportunities to place your work in relevant real-world contexts
Connections with project owners, interior professionals and organisations
Greater visibility around the story, materials and thinking behind your work
Exploring how identity, provenance and use can remain connected to your pieces over time
Access to relevant opportunities, calls and developments we discover through our network and research
We’re currently looking for circular and upcycling designers who want to help us test what this could become: join our pilot or apply to be considered for one of our upcoming Context Capsules.
For Project Owners
Looking for circular design with character - and the story and thinking to back it up?
May Again connects hospitality, retail, cultural and public projects with circular and upcycling designers whose work deserves to be seen and used in real environments.
Rather than starting with a catalogue, we start with context. We look at the place, its purpose and the people using it, then bring together pieces and designers that make sense there.
Through Context Capsules and tailored collaborations, you can discover and experience circular design in practice while giving remarkable work a meaningful place to prove its value.

For Interior Professionals
Looking for distinctive circular pieces that strengthen your concept?
May Again can help you discover circular and upcycling designers whose work fits the context, character and ambitions of your project.
We don’t replace the role of the architect or interior designer. We work alongside you — bringing knowledge of circular designers, their materials and their stories into the project and helping create connections that might otherwise be difficult to find.
Whether you are looking for one particular piece, exploring circular possibilities for a project or searching for designers worth knowing, we’d love to hear what you’re working on.
