Sustainability is a very important brand value of imondi. We want to use this topic to understand how designers apply the concept and application of sustainability in design. Our colleague Emanuele visited Hassell's designers, Recy Shao & Victor Ung and had a conversation on this topic.
Emanuele, Recy Shao, Victor Ung
Hassell:
There is this idea that goes throughout Hassell of caring for the environment, encourage our staff and our clients to raise awareness of sustainability.
Hassell:
We have implemented a no single-use plastic day in the company; there are awards for who achieves this the best.
We’ve loved discovering the possibilities of using reclaimed woods; from both the sustainability perspective and the stories behind them.
Hassell:
Hassell’s sustainability committee is an incredibly motivating force inside our company, there is so much support, training and encouragement , personally we have been enabled to renew both LEED AP and WELL AP.

Hassell:
One of my favourite projects was when we used reclaimed basketball court flooring from imondi as the floors for an office –not just recycling but upcycling.
