Adam Fairweather and his partner Rosalie McMillan run Smile Plastics, a circular economy business that reimagines local waste streams to make beautiful materials for the built environment.  We talk about Adam’s approach to design, and his ethos that ‘material language’ can communicate messages to people through design, creating socially, emotionally and industrially durable products.  We explore some of the wide range of projects Adam has been involved in over the last couple of decades.  Adam tells us about his plans for decentralised manufacturing, forming an industrial ecosystem to reimagine waste.
