Academische achtergrond
Ingrid de Pauw studied Industrial Design Engineering at the Delft University of Technology (DUT) specialising in environmental product development. She has over 25 years of experience in sustainable product design and design-research projects, with a specialisation in design for the circular economy, biomimicry and cradle to cradle. In 2004, she co-founded design bureau IDEAL&CO in which she is currently partner. In 2015, she obtained a PhD degree from the DUT, for her research on Nature-Inspired Design. In this project, she investigated how and why strategies such as Biomimicry and Cradle to Cradle can help designers to develop sustainable products. She has participated in various research projects for the advancement of circular and sustainable product design, including ResCoM (Resource Conservative Manufacturing) and RePlanIT (on circular IT).
