How can the power and potential of school design be harnessed to enable all students and educators to excel? Schools have complex building requirements that must meet a wide circle of needs and cater to a diverse range of people. Spatial design has an immediate effect on learning outcomes as well as impacting a school's culture, community, wellbeing, diversity, equity, inclusion and justice aspirations. In partnership with the ECIS, the Educational Collaborative for International Schools and The Mona Lisa Effect®Matthew Savage, the Liberated Schools Conference will proactively demonstrate how school spaces can be designed and adapted to create a positive, inclusive and student-centric learning environment. Join international educators, architects, designers, health professionals, students and manufacturers to explore how to activate transformational change in school design. 📅 Date: 8 & 9 November 2024  📍 Location: The Eromesmarko Design Centre in Wijchen, The Netherlands.

Why don’t we value products more? Every year, our planet sees 2.12 BILLION TONNES of discarded items.   Reflecting on last month's ‘In the Making’ exhibition at Material Matters – a collaboration between the sustainability teams at tp bennett and The Furniture Practice, alongside 12 brands with outstanding material and product stories. Curated in-house, we want to thank all the wonderful suppliers for sharing their inspiring and thought-provoking stories.   Material Matters, with its focus on material innovation and the circular economy, was the perfect platform for ‘In the Making’. The exhibition aimed to peel back the polished façade of commercial products, revealing the time, care, resources, and the human and environmental impacts behind their creation—often overlooked aspects. We hope it inspires more informed choices, greater appreciation for the true value of these products, and ultimately leads to less waste.   Didn’t get a chance to experience it in person? We’re excited to share that you can now revisit ‘In the Making’ through a virtual tour. Follow the link below.

tp bennett’s design for insurer Aviva’s London headquarters at EightyFen represents a milestone in the organisation's commitment to fostering a positive workplace. As the original architects of EightyFen, we leveraged our intimate understanding of the building to create a fresh, sustainable and modern environment for Avivas client’s and main hub for its London-based employees. Using the building’s signature light-filled atrium, the design creates visual connection and transparency across the business, focusing energy and attention inwards.  Aviva’s various business units have been brought together in one central location, with open plan and agile workplaces, organised in neighbourhoods with an integrated central booking system, and comprehensive smart sensors, to help colleagues plan-ahead and work together. A bespoke sustainability strategy aligned the design brief with Aviva’s #ESG programme, including their climate focused targets. Working closely with the client as well as Hilson Moran, 24 Ltd, Overbury, Arcadis and multiple suppliers, this strategy set 105 environmental and social metrics over the project’s design, construction and operation phases. The project’s achievements included optimisation of operational and embodied carbon, responsible sourcing and specification of circular materials, health and wellness, social value and equality, diversity and inclusivity. As well as sourcing products using ‘AD Lib’, tp bennett’s proprietary responsible sourcing platform, the project achieved one of the most comprehensive embodied carbon calculations for a fit-out on record – with more than 500 products assessed. The workspace is a testament to the evolving landscape of modern offices, where design plays a pivotal role in driving culture and shaping the way people work.
