Many scientists describe the current era as Anthropocene, a geological epoch in which man is the main responsible for the events that occur on the planet. The point has reached where it has managed to change the ecosystem in which it lives, affecting all existing life cycles. The problem is not man and his individual actions, but how he has created an economic system, global capitalism, which has spread in such a way that it has made possible living standards that are difficult to leave behind. Current consumerism could be imagined as a straight line that consists of acquiring, using and throwing away. This is causing a problem on a global scale causing a climate emergency that we all suffer. Even so, solutions to this emergency could be found, such as creating a circular economy and leaving aside the fast fashion that affects many products. 

This project tries to offer a sustainable alternative and intends to investigate circular design processes to create a product brand without generating more waste. One of the materials causing the problem will be used, plastic, which currently floods most of the world's beaches and oceans. They will reflect and experiment about their recycling and reuse to find a circular consumption methodology. This consumption can be defined as a loop. From this idea, an investigation of circular repetition systems in nature such as wave movement, an infinite repetition system, will be made. In short, an attempt will be made to reverse the consumerist process and raise awareness in society to change through small actions, leaving the planet free of consequences.
