Why Now Is the Time to Bring the Circular Economy to The Lighting Industry
Energy efficiency was the first wave of making lighting more sustainable. The next wave is going to tackle embodied carbon.
Reflections on my first party in nearly 2 years

Watch the Teaser for my Upcoming Series - The Importance of Light
It’s important that we start talking about light and its importance beyond the familiar circle of other lighting and design professionals and engage critical decision-makers. This series is intended to start that conversation.
Where we are is not where we are going
