Listen in as Carr, an advocate of the circular economy in the built environment, architecture, and design industries, describes her firm’s work in alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and exclusively partners with manufacturers that support its mission to embrace mindful luxury amidst closed-loop, zero-waste processes and production methods.
