Photos of hMa’s renovation feature their ‘Topo Table’ (designed by partner Victoria Meyers) in the new conference room. ‘Topo Table’, one of the firm’s Nature-based furniture designs, is made using recycled materials and is available for purchase.

It is a very good thing that many companies are investing money to ‘go green’. This means that they are becoming more conscious about the negative effects of unnecessary use of energy resources on the environment in which we live. With a little effort, as shown in this article, offices can be made more energy-efficient. The trend is catching on, but there is much more to be done, not just in office-based workspaces, but also in factory work floors. Businessmen have the means to ensure that with their business activities, they do not cause damage to the environment in a selfish way to the detriment of future generations.
