The Designer’s Accord is a group of IDSA members who have come together to address the issue of sustainability. Radius is a proud new member standing amongst the ranks of the top firms in the international design community.
We ask all designers, globally, to proactively engage in a dialogue about environmental impact with each and every client, and to evaluate sustainable alternatives in design. Our rationale is that by collectively committing to having this conversation, our client base - the world's manufacturers, distributors, and services providers - will be compelled to evaluate sustainability as a key vector in decision-making around the products and service they create for their base - the global consuming audience.
We promote openly sharing knowledge about green design and sustainability. We believe that building environmental intelligence should be a collective exercise. For this cause, we advocate for inverting the traditional model of competition, and encourage pooling knowledge so that all may benefit and build on marketable and sustainable solutions.
