#SurfaceMatter MaterialsUsedBetter CreateChange

Surface Matter shines a light on the circular economy, believing that with the right planning and understanding, no materials should end up in landfill. A series of activities exploring how we can connect and create change.

Pop by our London Fields studio 9.30–17.30 weekdays to discuss all things materials, sustainability and takeback.
