Historically, the apparel trade has exploited labour, the environment and intellectual property. Best-selling journalist Dana Thomas has travelled the globe to discover the visionary designers and companies who are reclaiming traditional craft and launching cutting-edge sustainable technologies to produce better fashion.

Home is often seen as a place of comfort and refuge, yet beneath its calm surface lies a continuous flow of materials, energy, water, and consumption. Much of this flow follows a linear path—from purchase to disposal—quietly generating waste, inefficiency, and environmental strain. The Circular Home invites listeners to rethink this familiar system and reimagine the home as a regenerative, intelligent ecosystem built on the principles of circular living.
