City as Campus: The Furniture Practice

Join LSA at The Furniture Practice, for an engaging and informative evening, exploring the climate impact of traditional materials and also of some new innovative sustainable materials that have recently been developed.  We will be discussing how important materiality is in the carbon footprint of products, and how the carbon footprint is calculated.

We will also discuss upcoming sustainability legalisation and the likely impacts of such legislation on construction and fit-out projects. In addition, we will touch on how the architecture and design community is collaborating to share knowledge and best practices for creating a more sustainable future.

Drinks and nibbles provided.
