Our Ethos.
As a team of designers helping businesses to (quite literally) design their future, it’s only right that sustainability influences it.
It’s our responsibility to not only clients, but the planet, to educate ourselves on eco-friendly practices, products and solutions that we can incorporate into our client’s schemes. We find partners and suppliers who share our ethos and invest into the creation of sustainable innovations and alternatives.
We ourselves are on a journey to finding ways in which to make sustainable choices in everything we do, not just the schemes we design.
“Good design is sustainable, great design is responsible.”
— Richard Wittschiebe
Ecologi
We work with ecologi, an environmental organisation, to fund tree planting and carbon avoidance.
Ecologi are a B-Corp certified organisation and so far, we have donated to five different projects in the UK and further afield, and donated over 200 trees to be planted. Our most recent donations are to the ‘Restoring Wildflowers, Wetlands and Wildlife’ fund, ‘Seagrass restoration and research’ fund and supporting local reforestation in the United Kingdom. We have donated to two carbon avoidance projects which are ‘Capturing waste biogas for energy in Turkey’ which will avoid 30,153 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions each year and a wind power project in Mexico, which has educated over 1,000 children about the importance and value of nature.
It’s not all about us — but the wider network of partners and suppliers that we choose to work alongside.
Each of our suppliers have their own environmental and sustainability policies, investing their resources into developing products that are more environmentally-friendly and processes that are more green and much more efficient. Many of those we partner with are able to educate us even further on ways in which to support sustainability in our client’s schemes.
