Design the Future of Circular Living
At Decibel, we believe the spaces we live, work, and play in should reflect the values of the world we want to build — sustainable, adaptive, and radically creative. That’s why we’re launching an open call to computational designers, architects, and artists ready to explore what’s possible when design meets circular production.
This is your invitation to push the boundaries of digital design and robotic manufacturing — to create the next icon of circular living.
The Problem We’re Solving
Furniture and plastic waste are growing rapidly
12 Million Tons of Furniture Waste
Each year in the U.S., over 12 million tons of furniture are discarded. The majority ends up in landfills. From fast furniture trends to outdated manufacturing models, the industry is built to waste — not to last.
91% of Plastic Is Never Recycled
Despite increased awareness, 91% of plastic waste is never recycled. Much of it is downcycled, burned, or sent overseas — rarely repurposed into meaningful, lasting products.
A System Built for Waste
Most furniture is mass-produced overseas, stored in warehouses, and shipped around the world. This linear system prioritizes cost over impact, creating emissions and excess every step of the way.
Our Approach
We believe in circular design. By transforming recycled plastics into made-to-order pieces through robotic 3D printing, we eliminate excess inventory, minimize carbon emissions, and give waste a second life — all while creating products that inspire.
A Mission Rooted in Impact
Decibel exists to tackle the massive waste and inefficiencies of traditional design. We’ve built a platform that empowers designers to create responsibly, enables custom solutions without excess, and brings sustainable, on-demand manufacturing to the forefront.
By combining recycled materials with robotic 3D printing and circular production, we’re not just reducing impact — we’re reshaping the system around what the future demands.
Our approach
Sustainability Without Compromise
♻️ Recycled & Bio-Based Materials
We use high-quality recycled plastics and bio-based polymers — materials that would otherwise go to waste — to create durable, beautiful pieces.
🏭 On-Demand, Local Manufacturing
Our robotic 3D printing systems allow us to produce closer to the point of use, eliminating excess shipping and reducing carbon emissions.
🌀 Designed for Circularity
We design with the end in mind. Our parts are mono-material and modular whenever possible, making recycling and re-use simple.
📦 Zero Inventory, No Waste
No overproduction, no warehousing, no unnecessary materials. Each piece is made to order — only when needed.
