The 6th key to Circular Interiors is creating a healthy environment.

We all spend most of our time indoors. 

Work|Office, school and our home.

Air quality, heating & cooling, ventilation, lighting and acoustics are extremely important factors when creating a healthy home and this is what key number 6 is all about : designing healthy homes.

According to the US environmental Protection Agency indoor air pollution is one of the 5 biggest threat to our health.

5th key is LIFE DESIGN

My search for circular interiors became my  LECTURE | Föreläsning 

The 5th key principle to Circular Interiors  is designing for life. 

What I call Life Design | LIVSDESIGN is everything from the bed that expands when the child grows to choosing furniture that lasts a lifetime instead of being worn out fast. To not throw away furniture to become landfill we plan for a long life and not only for one year at a time. 

To design interiors that will last a lifetime is possible and that is what we look into with key nr 5 LIVSDESIGN | Life Design

3 key to Circular Interiors

The third key [out of 6] to Circular Interior Design is Sustainability | Hållbarhet in my lecture | fördrag  INRED CIRKULÄRT | Circular Interior design. 

Since the most ecological product is the one not made we are now aware of sustainability in the world.

 We need to use the understanding of how to create circular interior design and throw less that end up as landfill material. 

Life cycle Assessment or LCA meassure the impact a product has on our enviroment and can be a helpful instrument #lifecycleassessment 

FSC labels can be found on millions of products around the world – from toilet rolls to your favourite book, to that milk carton in your fridge, and other food products. What does the label mean? Simply put: by choosing products with FSC labels, you are helping to take care of the world’s forests @fsc_international 

Key nr 3 Sustainability | Hållbarhet In my lecture | föredrag we look at all 6 keys to Circular Interior design. 

This is a short post on a 3 hour lecture to awaken the understanding for Circular Interiors | INRED CIRKULÄRT.

When we reach for the rechargeable 

electrical tooth brush remember to have fossil 

fuel free based energy in your home made from 

renewable fossil free energy sources. 

Part of : 

Föredrag | Lecture 

INRED CIRKULÄRT | 6 keys to CIRCULAR INTERIOR DESIGN 

After realizing energy comsumption is one of the largest contributing causes to climate change we want to design energy efficiant interiors which is a large part of key nr 2 :

6 keys to Circular Interiors 



FÖREDRAG | LECTURE 

Jimmy Schönning 

Allteftersom vi på vår 

planet blir mer

 medvetna om at vi 

som bor här tillsammans

bär vårt personliga miljöansvar 

så blir det mer klart att vi bygger 

och inreder med planetens bästa i åtanke. 

As we grow more conscious of our own responsibility we

 want to contribute to

creating a healthier environment, 

so when we design, 

build and interior decorate we do so

considerate of planet earth in a Cradle to Cradle approach. 

 

Resultatet av insikten att vi själva är ansvariga för att vår värld 

skall fortsätta att existera

INSIGTH  INSIKT 

is where it all begins. 

When we realize that 

we are all responsible for 

this world to continue to exist. 

 

'

blir att fler och fler förstår 

världsnyttan av att inkorporera 

hållbarhetsprinciper i sin inredning. 

The insight of knowing how to incorporate

key sustainability 

principles to our interiors.  

Arkitekter, inredare och designers 

(och ALLA som inreder sitt eget hem) 

 har stort inflytande över hållbarhet

 i sin omgivning.

EVERYONE that creates 

interiors can do it. 

 

Vi bestämmer över vilka material 

och produkter som skall användas och 

till vilken grad ekologi

 implementeras i de utrymmen de skapar

 

Genom att applicera 

dessa 6 cirkulära 

nyckelprinciper 

BY APPLYING THESE 

6 KEY PRINCIPLES

så kan vi människor, inredare , 

designers och arkitekter 

reducera den negativa 

miljöpåverkan på vår samtid

och bygga en bättre, 

mer hållbar 

framtid tillsammans.

LET’s work towards 

REDUCING THE NEGATIVE 

IMPACT ON MOTHER EARTH 

AND BUILD A BETTER MORE 

SUSTAINABLE FUTURE TOGETHER. 

YOU AND ME. 

TOGETHER

E 1027 Eileen Gray

E 1027 E for Eileen 10 for J (Jean)  being the 10th letter of the alphabet. 2 for B (Badovici) 7 for G as in Gray. 

My first glass side table bought to my first apartment was from IKEA. It was a minimal glass and metall table which looked more like a dentist table in my eyes. 

Industrial type design. I loved it. 

My design savvy relative visting me the same day I had found the right place for my new IKEA table told me she preferred the original design by Eileen Gray and not this beyond bad copy.

Eileen Gray

That is how I was introduced to the design universe of Eileen Gray who was born in 1878 Ireland and died 31st of October in Paris 1976. 

Eileen Gray was an architect, interior designer and artist active within the International Style  dominating the 1950´s to 1970´s. 

The glass and metal adjustable table E 1027 was created for being able to eat breakfast, or any meal for that matter, in bed.

Villa E 1027 was designed by Eileen Gray 

but both Le Corbusier och Jean Badovici 

took credit for the inventive 

modern design that was so ahead of its time. 

In Behind Straight Curtains Towards a Queer 

Feminist Theory History of Architecture from 2007 Architect Artist and Scientist Katarina Bonnevier analyses Villa E 1027 from a feministic and queer perspective. Her theory is that Villa E 1027 is created for an alternative lifestyle and not with the patriarchal straight so called normality in mind. 

I learned this by 

listening to my favorite 

Swedish radio 

program Stil i P1 on Eileen Gray.

Jean Badovici in a photo taken 

by Eileen Gray at Villa E 1027.
