About
Lorenzo Marangi is a researcher at the intersection of sustainable design, product-service systems (PSS), and digital fabrication. His work focuses on integrating environmental assessment tools directly into design platforms, enabling engineers and makers to evaluate ecological impacts in real time rather than as an afterthought. His most cited paper, “Integrating a LCA tool with a design platform towards a sustainable-aware PSS design: application in a FabLAB environment” (2018, 11 citations), addresses a critical gap: commercial life-cycle assessment (LCA) tools are often disconnected from the creative design process. By embedding LCA capabilities into FabLAB environments, Marangi empowers small-scale producers and innovators to make sustainability-conscious decisions from the earliest stages of product development. This work contributes to the broader shift toward circular economy principles and democratized eco-design. Marangi’s research is particularly relevant for students and practitioners in sustainable engineering, industrial design, and maker culture, offering practical pathways to reduce environmental footprints without sacrificing creativity or efficiency.
