The design industry has a problem. Hotels are stripped out and rebuilt every seven to ten years. Restaurants, every two to three. Retail interiors, sometimes in less than a year. Skip after skip is filled with materials that were perfectly serviceable, discarded because tastes shifted or a brand wanted a refresh. The cost is enormous: to the planet, to the people who made those materials, and to the businesses paying to throw them away.
Beyond Sustainability is a call to design differently - not as an act of sacrifice, but as an act of intelligence.
Drawing on fifteen years running Sibley Grove, an award-winning hospitality design studio, Jeremy Grove sets out a practical framework for a circular economy in design. Through ten clear steps - from Design for Disassembly and material health to building responsible supply chains and making the commercial case - he shows how circular thinking delivers better buildings, better businesses, and better outcomes for the people who use them.
Part memoir, part manifesto, part practical handbook, this book draws on real projects, hard-won lessons, and conversations with figures including Michael Braungart, co-author of Cradle to Cradle. It is essential reading for designers, developers, hotel operators, manufacturers, and anyone who believes the built environment can be both beautiful and good.
Look beyond sustainability. Look at what hospitality design is becoming - and at the part you can play in building it.
