I’ve just wrapped up a productive few days at the Eleco plc strategy meeting in Skellefteå, Sweden – an inspiring setting that allowed us to think about the exciting growth for the company. While there, I had the chance to visit the remarkable The Wood Hotel by Elite designed by White Arkitekter This was especially meaningful as almost a year to the day I heard Alexandra Hagen White’s CEO, shared insights with on sustainable design at CREtech Climate last year, and seeing this vision realised in Skellefteå was powerful. The Wood Hotel not only showcases the impact of modular design and an open approach to design and procurement, but also demonstrates how great buildings can have a positive impact on its community. My colleagues at Elecosoft all live locally and were glowing about the benefits of the building. Not only is it a hotel, but it also hosts a cultural centre, meeting places, library, spa and bar. It shows the benefit of sustainable design and its impact on a local community. A year later it is great to see my client Bywater Properties showing the courage and vision to develop with the same intent. It is exciting to work with them to see close hand how the leadership and conviction of Theodore Michell and Patrick O'Gorman and thier talented team making projects that are not only sustainable but also drive great social impact as well. When I sat in Stockholm last year I had no idea where the next 12 months would take me - it’s been really exciting to arrive at a place where all of my current worlds collide and the potential growth of DigitalTrees. #SustainableDesign #ModularConstruction #InnovationInArchitecture #CRETech #Skellefteå #technology Emily Wright Michael Beckerman Amber Hawkes Jonathan Hunter Professor Sadie Morgan OBE
