Introduction on Plastic Second Life
200KG Of Repurposed Plastic Waste
Innovative Sustainability Projects
CENTRE for CREATIVE CIRCULARITY is a community-driven platform designed to raise awareness about circular creativity, plastic recycling and encourage active participation. It provides clear, accessible information about plastic waste, practical recycling guidance, and opportunities for community involvement through events, volunteering, and local initiatives.

Scouts Plastic Innovation
Empowered By Volunteers
200 KG of Innovation
At the 10th International Scouts Gathering in Sharjah, participants turned plastic recycling into a hands-on experience, creatively repurposing waste into new opportunities. Supported by partners and the Sharjah Scouts community, the initiative promoted sustainable thinking and meaningful environmental action.
we had an amazing group of volunteers join us in our research lab to tackle plastic recycling. ♻️ Step 1: Separating water bottle caps from bottles. Step 2: Shredding the plastic to prepare it for its next life!
In the past few years, we’ve repurposed approximately 200 kilograms of recycled materials into sustainable designs and prototypes. These materials have been transformed into innovative solutions through additive manufacturing, creative processes, and collaborative research.

Second Life
One man’s trash is another man’s treasure!
Second Life symbolises hope and opportunity through its recycling of nature. A dead tree, otherwise left to decay, is given a second life, a new value, and the ability to radiate light in its new form. The equal incisions into the tree radiate equal light and represent the gaps in our lives. The voids serve to remind us of light after dark, and life after death.

Tawasul
TAWASUL was a modular installation that reflected the key pillars of the UAE's 2030 Agenda, which included achievement of the UN's Sustainable Development goals.
Designed to be created using multiple single units with the possibility of being put together in various ways, the adaptable modularity represented society connected through units interlocked together to build the gate for the future as well as an enormous potential for sustainability.

Deterministic Path
A design concept adapted to physical distancing with focus on encouraging social intervention with safe distancing, the installation consisted of a modular design grid, created for flexibility and possibility for repurposing.
The social distancing precautions caused by COVID-19 were adopted to generate the installation’s design grid, made up by a series of modules, allowing flexibility once deconstructed.
