What is the problem with our existing way of selecting, buying and using furniture? Is there an alternative way?


Instead of the linear Take, Make, Waste economy, how can we create a circular Make, Use, Reuse economy?


How is Love Island encouraging Gen Z to fall in love with circularity?


I chat to Marc Richard, managing director of furniture brand Roger Lewis, co-founder of futurist and closed loop furniture brand Capxule and straight-talking Northerner.


Mark is the managing director and owner of furniture brand Roger Lewis. Roger Lewis is a British manufacturer of furniture for corporate and hospitality projects, which recently moved to a new factory in Frome, Somerset. Mark has also co-founded Capxule, a closed loop concept furniture brand.


The journey to understand what a furniture brand of the future could look like has ignited a passion in him to help drive structural change within the furniture industry. He grew up in Leeds where a passion for building relationships out of candid communication and integrity was baked into him. Mark lives with his wife and two sons in Bath.
