Healthy & Sustainable Interior Architecture in N12

FreeSpace Design believe that we are all planet architects.

Each one of us leave footprints on this planet. We have a choice to make our imprints positive, or polluting.

We can choose what paint fumes we breathe when decorating (eg synthetic wall paint typically releases toxins for up to 5 years, makes toxic sludge in its processing and has VOC's, plasticisers and carcinogens), what floor to walk on (off-gassing or not), what glass, timber and cladding to use, what furniture to purchase (sustainable, recyclable, plastic etc). In short, we choose whether our structural and interior design materials promote health, or not.

Few materials are inert, or positive-impact, and there is a lot of sophisticated greenwash in the built environment. After years of research, FreeSpace Design London are specialists in safe, non-toxic, circular-economy-ready products for sustainable UK interior design and architecture, all verified sustainable and Cradle to Cradle Certified® healthy. So, your air quality from these products is as pure as possible and the products are made without slavery in the system, all third-party verified and rigorously assessed for material health, product circularity, clean air and climate protection, and water and soil stewardship.

FreeSpace Design is pro-people and pro-planet - a uniquely committed Interior Architecture practice that promotes healthy interior architecture for beautiful, responsible homes. Since buildings are a collection of materials, our structural safety, material safety and design arrangement are all vital considerations for generationally positive impacts. Indoor air quality, lighting optimisation, views, thermal comfort, windows and acoustics, among other choices, collectively impact the health and value of our homes. They are all materials-driven.

Ethical design principles underpin FreeSpace, so naturally, our design consultancy is committed to introducing clients to Cradle to Cradle Certified® products. Cradle to Cradle Certified® is the global certification standard for safe, circular and responsibly made products. 

Designing responsibly does not mean blowing the budget. In many cases, ‘sustainable’ design represents a real financial saving because certified products are usually best-in-class and outlast traditional competitive products. 

Beautiful, healthy design does not need to cost the Earth.  We offer professionalism and affordability, because if we design like nature, every home can be positively impacting, like a tree, and our cities can be like forests, where we design smartly, beautifully, and healthily, fit for future generations.
