Welcome to the first episode in our Sustainability Series. I am first to admit that Sustainability is not something I know a lot about. It’s something I’ve been aware of my entire life, but as a design practice is not a specialty I’ve done beyond the basics (reusing existing materials from site, or choosing options that produce less carbon or can be recycled). As I began brainstorming for the Deep Dive Series one of the first things I knew I had to discuss, was Sustainability. So I asked my friend Jennifer Collins, to come along with me as I explore this topic. She is the founder of OneRejen a sustainable consulting firm, and the perfect person to get us going on the topic of Regenerative Design. Enjoy! OneRejen.com email:
