The Sustainable Design Forum

Now in our third year, this day of knowledge sharing and collaboration will focus on ‘People and Planet’ and has been expanded to include additional workplace topics.

BDP and M Moser and Associates are already announced as headline A&D sponsors. Plus, the ’doyenne’ of inclusive design, HOK’s Kay Sargent, has chosen the Forum to be the venue for the launch of her new book and research on Neuro-inclusion. Her talk will be part of the schedule of presentations and panel discussions from the 30+ SDC members, including Asif Din, from Perkins & Will; TP Bennett’s Lucy Bagshaw; Lydia Randall from BDG; M Moser’s Sam Allen and Gurvinder Khurana to name a few.

We’re also excited to be running a series of speed-dating style workshops on principles and applications of sustainability.

Key topics will include decarbonisation; future proofing; material choices; designing for wellbeing (ergonomics, acoustics and comfort); circular design, retrofit and reuse. Designed to be highly interactive, activities will include workshops and ‘speed dating’ style round tables.

Curated by designers for designers, the event offers an opportunity to learn and exchange ideas and a completely different approach to ‘standard’ industry exhibitions.

The day will conclude with the Sustainable Design Awards. Free to enter, the Awards are designed to champion ‘best practice’ and highlight innovations leading to greater sustainability within the office workplace sector.

Manufacturers and suppliers of furniture, flooring, new materials, fittings and finishes as well as reuse operations and IT services can also participate.
