Bonjour!
We are so excited to share our biggest news yet. For months, we’ve been working behind-the-scenes to bring this idea to life!
Laurence Carr Inc is proud to announce our original video series Chez Laurence, in partnership with EarthX, premiering May 26th at 8/7c on EarthX TV, a new 24×7 channel & VOD library airing original series, award-winning documentaries, daily news; global events.
This series highlights manufacturers of furniture, textiles, and other materials who are demonstrating circular, regenerative, and sustainable practices. Designers have a major responsibility to make healthy choices and educate consumers about which materials and products are harmful to the environment. These industry pioneers seek to replace the end-of-life concept with restoration, shift toward renewable energy, eliminate the use of toxic chemicals, and importantly, aim to eliminate waste.
Carr explains:
“Circularity specifically refers to how resource cycles work, describing an industrial system that promotes reuse, upcycling (regeneration), and the elimination of waste.
All circular practices are sustainable, but not all sustainable initiatives are circular. The reason I am such an advocate of circularity is because I believe it is the model that best promotes sustainability for the construction and design industries.”
Our premiere episode features Phillips Collection, a widely recognized industry leader in sustainable furnishings and circular practices. Their motto is “every piece a conversation,” and their furniture pieces celebrate and honor nature, never taking away from it. Phillips’ legacy is one of innovation and preservation, dedicated to environmental transparency and stewardship, championing their use of the “waste of the waste” – ever-evolving and improving in their artistry, vision, approach, and practices.
Tune in to watch live on EarthXTV, or catch the VOD replay on our Chez Laurence series page.
Here’s to inspiring a more circular future!
