Sustainability eBook 2023: Knauf

Building design is a linchpin in the pursuit of sustainability. Through thoughtful consideration of orientation, materials, energy systems, and water management, architects and engineers hold the power to create structures that harmonize with the environment rather than deplete it. By prioritizing sustainability in design, we pave the way for a more ecologically balanced and resilient future.

In 2023, Knauf was the proud sponsor of the Small Sustainable Practice category. This award is open to all architecture and design firms with 10 or less staff and recognises and rewards their achievements in not just designing socially sustainable projects but it also covers those design firms that demonstrate alignment with the UN 17 SDGs by integrating sustainability principles and practices across business activities and outcomes, such as sustainable energy, climate resilience, environmental and social best practice, environmental and social innovation, and gender and economic inclusion.
