Products That Last : Product Design for Circular Business Models, Paperback / softback Book

Products That Last : Product Design for Circular Business Models Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Products that Last starts where most books on product development end.

This new edition contains new examples and insights from recent publications.

From the perspective of designers and entrepreneurs, once a product has been designed, produced and sold, it disappears beyond the newness horizon.

They are little aware of the opportunities that exist in the next product universe, where money is made from products in use, as well as from a product’s afterlife.

These opportunities clearly exist, otherwise they would not be providing an income for so many people.

However, to be recognized as segments of a circle of continuous value creation, they need reframing. The book offers readers an innovative and practical methodology to unravel a product’s afterlife and systematically evaluate it for new opportunities.

It introduces business models that enable us to benefit from the opportunities offered by a much longer product life.

Products that Last changes the way designers and entrepreneurs develop and exploit goods, helping reduce material and energy consumption over time.

Nothing more, nothing less.
