AVAN INFINITE / PROJECT 2026

ECOMA

A circular living platform for households, communities and municipalities.

A digital concept connecting everyday sustainable behaviour with household awareness, community participation and city-level insight.

Developed by AVAN Infinite Studio
Competition House of No Waste
Sprint 10 intensive days
ECOMA circular living platform concept by AVAN Infinite Studio

From a competition concept to a real-world opportunity.

ECOMA was developed by AVAN Infinite Studio in an intensive ten-day sprint in response to the House of No Waste International Ideas Competition initiated by UNU-FLORES.

The project explores how sustainable living can move beyond isolated personal habits and become part of a connected system linking households, communities, service providers and public institutions.

This public page intentionally presents selected parts of the concept. Detailed system architecture, implementation logic, operational workflows and commercial development plans are reserved for qualified partnership, pilot, investment and licensing discussions.

The Opportunity

Sustainability becomes stronger when everyday action and public systems connect.

01

Households

Help people understand resource use, track sustainable actions and build habits that can translate into measurable everyday impact.

02

Communities

Create shared participation through local challenges, collective goals, education and community-based sustainability initiatives.

03

Municipalities

Create a potential bridge between citizen participation and aggregated sustainability insight for planning, engagement and future public-service innovation.

Selected Glimpse / 01

The home as a starting point.

ECOMA begins with the place where many sustainability decisions happen every day: the household.

The concept considers resource awareness, waste, energy, water and sustainable actions as connected parts of one living system rather than separate behaviours.

Selected Glimpse / 02

From awareness to participation.

The concept explores ways to make sustainable behaviour easier to understand, repeat and share through guided journeys, challenges and forms of positive engagement.

The objective is not simply to display environmental information, but to create a clearer path from knowledge to action.

Behavioural mechanics and reward logic are not publicly disclosed.

System Thinking

One concept. Multiple scales.

ECOMA was conceived as more than a standalone consumer interface. The broader vision considers how individual action can connect with wider systems, services and place-based sustainability goals.

Selected system preview — detailed architecture and operational logic are reserved for qualified collaboration discussions.

Selected Glimpse / 03

A potential interface between citizens and cities.

At a public-sector level, ECOMA explores the potential for aggregated sustainability information to support better communication, education, planning and community participation.

The municipal layer is currently conceptual and intended for further development through partnerships, pilot programs and context-specific validation.

Analytics structure, KPI framework and implementation model are reserved for private review.

Why ECOMA Matters

A small shift today. A larger impact tomorrow.

01

Circular living

Make reuse, reduction, resource awareness and responsible consumption easier to understand in everyday life.

02

Behaviour change

Translate sustainability from information into participation, repetition and action.

03

Connected systems

Explore how homes, communities and public systems can participate in a more integrated sustainability model.

04

Public impact

Create pathways for education, engagement, resource planning and future public-sector collaboration.

Competition Context

Built under pressure. Developed with purpose.

AVAN Infinite Studio developed the project in a highly compressed ten-day sprint to meet the House of No Waste International Ideas Competition deadline.

The competition was initiated by the United Nations University Institute for Integrated Management of Material Fluxes and of Resources (UNU-FLORES) and focused on circularity, resource efficiency and waste reduction in the built environment.

Open for Collaboration

ECOMA is ready for its next chapter.

AVAN Infinite Studio is open to discussions with municipalities, public-sector innovation teams, sustainability organisations, research partners and investors interested in validating, piloting or further developing the concept.

01 Municipal Pilot

Adapt the concept to a local city, council or public-service context.

02 Strategic Partnership

Develop the platform with an aligned sustainability or technology partner.

03 Investment

Explore product development, validation and scalable commercial pathways.

04 Licensing / Acquisition

Discuss appropriate pathways for organisations interested in the underlying concept.

Detailed framework, system architecture, research, prototype logic and development material are shared selectively in qualified discussions.
