Learn moreMany buyers are unaware that they can purchase reused furniture. However, excellent framework agreements for reused furniture are now available, making it very easy to buy reused items—even without an agreement.”

Circularity in interior design is about creating long-term, sustainable environments by minimizing waste and maximizing resource efficiency. Instead of discarding furniture and materials after a short lifecycle, circular solutions focus on reuse, refurbishment, and smart material choices. By designing flexible and modular interiors, we can create spaces that easily adapt to changing needs—without harming the environment.
✔ Reuse and redesign – Give existing furniture and materials a new life through refurbishment, reupholstering, and upgrades.
✔ Responsible material management – Choose sustainable, non-toxic, and recyclable materials for a healthier indoor environment and easier waste management.
✔ Modular and flexible solutions – Design with adaptability in mind, allowing interiors to evolve without the need for replacement.
✔ Efficient resource management – Map and inventory existing furnishings to identify what can be reused instead of newly produced items.
At Indicum, we assist you in carrying out your move, renovation, or new establishment in a circular way. Through careful planning, inventory management, and sustainable choices, we can reduce environmental impact while creating inspiring and functional workspaces.
Hållbar Interiör (HI) is an independent certification that ensures interior environments meet high climate and environmental criteria. The certification is based on principles of circularity, reuse, and non-toxic materials, helping businesses create interiors with a low environmental impact. By certifying a space with the HI label, you gain verification that the interior is sustainable and resource-efficient.
At Indicum, we offer expert guidance throughout the entire HI certification process. Our certified HI coaches assist you in:
✔ Mapping and inventorying your existing interior to identify what can be reused and upgraded.
✔ Assessing your space based on the HI certification’s climate and environmental criteria, and providing concrete improvement suggestions.
✔ Supporting you throughout the entire verification process and ensuring that you meet the requirements for HI certification.
With our expertise, we can help you create a sustainable, circular, and long-term interior solution that benefits both the environment and strengthens your brand.
“In the past, I have been met with resistance and uncertainty when I suggest to a client that they can buy recycled furniture. When it has not been possible to give clear answers to questions such as what it costs, how long the guarantee period is and what conditions apply, the answer is often no.”
