Show Notes

Sustainability is defined as ‘the ability to be maintained at a certain rate or level’.

But, given the environmental damage we have already inflicted on our planet, is it sufficient to maintain the status quo at our current degraded level?

In other words, is it enough to merely cause no further damage or should we be setting our sights higher with long-term goals to restore the environmental quality of our home to pre-industrial levels?

Mel Meale from Steer Design and Simon Myatt from Havwoods share ideas with Jeff and Susie in an episode recorded in front of a live audience at the recent Design Central South West event held at Blagdon in Somerset. 

Thanks to Havwoods the prevailing name in beautiful wood flooring. 

The Interior Design Business is a Wildwood production.
