Sustainability
We take a holistic approach to interior design in dialogue with our clients.
An appealing design, the well-being of the users and environmental aspects are all considered in equal measure.
In discussions with the client, we define individual sustainability goals for each project at an early stage. These focal points are accompanied by us from planning to completion.
In this way, we jointly contribute to a positively designed and sustainably built environment.
Carolina Hahn (Cologne office) and Oliver Schau (Hamburg office) are our contact persons and experts in the field of sustainability. But of course all our other employees are also passionate about the topic.
We look forward to realising sustainable projects with you.
Wir freuen uns darauf mit Ihnen nachhaltige Projekte zu realisieren.
