Sustainable Design Forum and Awards
A day to focus on greater environmental responsibility, wellbeing and social value in the office workplace sector.
For DESIGNERS, ARCHITECTS, SPECIFIERS & SUSTAINABILITY CONSULTANTS ONLY
The Sustainable Design Forum is FREE to attend and curated for professionals whose roles focus on Design, architecture, and sustainability in an A&D or D&B firm. If your organization is a supplier of services and solutions (vendor) to the sector, please come along for the networking and awards evening by booking the evening ticket ONLY.
An interactive event for architects and designers to learn and hear from manufacturers and suppliers about efforts towards greater sustainability. This event is a ‘By Designers For Designers’ setup by the SDC (Sustainable Design Collective) - a think tank of top A&D firms from the UK.
As well as SDC’s panel of workplace experts, the event will include presentations from manufacturers and suppliers, who will also host a table area for further one-to-one discussions during the day. Alongside interactive workshops and panel discussions, TFP will be curating a materials lab displaying innovative and sustainable materials. A&D firms will host interactive materials workshops throughout the day.
View the detailed Forum Day agenda below.
Register and attend multiple sessions or stay throughout the day.
Unlike larger exhibitions, this first of its first-of-its-kind kind event is organised by the team at SDC and Women in Office Design and is intended specifically for architects and designers. Hosted on a smaller scale, this forum will provide the opportunity for networking and purposeful conversations about our industry’s efforts towards sustainability.
