A Shared Strategy for Responsible Design
written by Dicky
Muro is a recent office refurbishment we completed for Crosstree Real Estate Partners LLP, set just beside the historic Roman Wall on Vine Street, Tower Hill. From the start, sustainability was central to the brief — particularly when it came to furniture.
Furniture plays a big role in how people experience a space. It’s what they sit on, gather around, and interact with most — and often what they remember. That’s why we collaborated with sustainability specialists Dodds & Shute, taking a circular approach to sourcing and selecting each piece.
The result is one of our highest-performing projects from a sustainability perspective. We specified items like the Humble Lounge Chair and Another Sofa, which feature natural fillings, low VOCs, and materials from renewable sources — all without compromising on the clean, refined aesthetic.
Our goal was to build a strategy around longevity — choosing furniture that’s not just environmentally sound, but also built to be loved, used, and kept for years to come.
