Welcome to The Green Room, #Decarbonised. A series of discussions tackling sustainability with key heads in our networks. Stay tuned over the next few months, as we take on sustainability across different ends of the supply chain, the different roles we play, the challenges we face and ways forward.
We are fully embracing the 'New Year, New Us' cliché, so this year you might notice something a little different about us.
Aside from our obvious love of street furniture and the outdoors, did you know we are also big fans of art and design?
Our new monthly podcast will explore all things landscape architecture, urban design and of course street furniture! Hosted by our managing director, Catherine Barratt, The Green Room promises to bring you the very best of industry musings, interviews, discussions and debates.
The cycling pros far outweigh the cons so local authorities are moving to make it a more inclusive and accessible mode of transport for everyone even in urban areas. But is there more to be done? And how can we entice future generations to put down the car keys and get on their bikes?
With people spending more time outside the need for planting has increased, so how do you choose the right planter for your scheme? We take a look at ways AKRI, our latest planter solution can be used to enhance different environments.
Shapes, curves, forms and lines. These elements combined play a vital role in transforming space and creating a unique experience on landscape schemes. We look at some exciting ways our RailRoad modular seating solution can be used to create unique designs on landscape schemes.
Developing usable and functional spaces for education in schools, colleges and universities can have significant benefits on students' health including; improved concentration and lower stress levels for better learning. We explore ways our outdoor furniture can be used to benefit educational establishments.
In one way or another we all try to live a more sustainable lifestyle. Our everyday choices have an impact on the environment we live in; from choosing to buy bottled water or that coffee on the morning run. We explore how we can be encouraged and inspired by other cities that have excelled at creating a sustainable and greener environment.
We long to be together again united in outside spaces, a shopping trip with friends or a picnic in the park but how can street furniture be used as a permanent solution in our way out of the pandemic?
