We believe both longevity & transparency are key to lasting design, so we asked the question - How as designers can we impact the future? Wanting to change the norms and standards of a typical design brief to ensure we are building something better.

From material choices to the way we put a product together and envisioning the product’s afterlife, everything comes down to design and engineering. There are many ways to incorporate sustainable design into a project, such as self-assembly, using waste materials, designing for repair and refresh, and extending the product’s lifespan.

Lifecycle analysis is a huge part of the act of designing; we must be responsible and understand every stage. This is something which is an embedded part of our work, we are no longer designing mechanically, financially or aesthetically, we have to understand the metrics from a carbon perspective to create truly great products.

We are designing with data.
