The workshop method outlined in this paper is part of ongoing research work in Hammarkullen, Gothenburg – a neighbourhood built in the 1960s as part of the Swedish Million Homes Programme (Hall & Vidén, 2005). This work maps the historical evolution of local community resources and actors through interviews with individuals involved in circularity and sharing practices emphasising their social and everyday dimensions (Hobson, 2020). Experiences from this work have raised questions regarding what it means to talk about concepts such as sustainability, sharing, and circularity without a locally established (and collectively shared) vocabulary around them.
