By now it’s clear: The built environment has a major impact on global warming and human health. Buildings account for 35-40% of global energy use and carbon emissions. Architecture, construction and building performance must improve to meet the challenges ahead.

So too must interior design.

HOK recognizes the role interior design plays in the health and well-being of people—all people—and the planet. That is why our approach to interior design prioritizes human health, environmental sustainability and social equity.

These are big issues that require more than just HOK’s commitment. We are calling on our clients, vendors, construction partners and industry peers to do the same. Through this collective spirit we can build a better world.

We can move Forward.
