INNER CIRCLE

MEMBER-ONLY

Design Intelligence

A space for designers, architects, specifiers, and material thinkers shaping environments that restore rather than deplete human & ecological health.

Not about trends, checklists, or surface-level claims, but about understanding how materials, systems, & decisions behave over time, in our bodies, buildings, ecosystems, & communities.

WHY

THE INNER CIRCLE

EXISTS

Most design conversations still measure success by appearance, performance specs, or emissions data.

But the environments we inhabit every day affect:

  • human health and nervous systems

  • indoor air and material toxicity

  • longevity, repair, and adaptability

  • the well-being of ecosystems & labour systems behind the build

The Inner Circle creates conversations, brings clarity, and supports design decisions that nurture, heal & restore life across the full material lifecycle without compromising visual integrity.

INSIDE INNER CIRCLE

Deep analysis of materials, assemblies, and interior–architectural systems through the lens of health, longevity, and restorative impact.

Specifier-grade insight you can return to repeatedly.

EARLY & EXCLUSIVE

INTELLIGENCE 

Including FULL ACCESS to:

In-depth articles, frameworks, assessments, and tools

A consistent framework for evaluating materials beyond performance claims.

Each month includes side-by-side material assessments across health · longevity · transparency · waste · ecosystems · community · labour · ethics · end-of-life.

This is not about “better” or “worse.”

It is about measurable impact.

Experience-informed perspective on

  • where materials fail despite good intentions

  • why certain systems repeat harm

  • how regenerative thinking is misapplied—or diluted—at scale

These are the conversations rarely published, but deeply felt in practice.

A reflection connecting design decisions back to care, responsibility, and long-term stewardship, rethinking how we approach our work, our clients, and the environments we create.
