A Sustainable future for both your property and the planet.
Painted with COAT: Sheldon
This ‘Conscious Collection’ has been designed by us, as a part of Britain’s first B Corp™ certified interior design collective. It isn’t labelled the ‘sustainability’ collection for a very good reason. You see we’re not 100% sustainable, and that’s a fact. But we’re on our journey towards a more sustainable design future, and so we’re conscious of our every step.
In partnership with the global real estate developers, Ghelamco, we’re proud to unveil the collection within The Arc development, an award-winning gem nestled in the vibrant heart of Shoreditch.
The decision to join forces and install within The Arc was instinctive, as this remarkable building is not only fully electric, but impressively holds triple sustainability certifications – BREEM, WELL and DGNB. With 30% lower carbon emissions than other multi-fuel operated developments, it's hard to not be impressed by the building's cutting-edge technology which you can read more about here.
THE CONSCIOUS COLLECTION
DESIGNED FOR LONGEVITY…
