Grain: The Poetic Objects of an Intentional Life
Hosted by: The Duncan Anderson: Design Lecture Series
On March 28th at 7 PM, the Duncan Anderson Gallery at CSULB will host a lecture by a Washington-based design firm that's B-Corp certified and focuses on sustainability! During the lecture, they will discuss their holistic approach to design and share insights on how they have committed to eliminating their entire carbon footprint as a climate-neutral brand known as GRAIN.
Their Statement:
"Over the past 15 years, we have endeavored to be as environmentally and socially responsible as possible in how we operate our business. This has always been a process for us. We try to not let perfection be the enemy of the good as we learn more and improve our operations over time. For our lecture, we will outline how we bring a holistic approach to our studio practice through the stories of our individual objects and how they relate to our core values.
Grain is a design practice dedicated to social and environmental responsibility founded in 2008 by Chelsea and James Minola. Our work unites current manufacturing technologies and age-old craft techniques. Goods are made-to-order at our Bainbridge Island, WA studio or through special collaborations with expert artisans in North America. We are a majority woman-owned and fully family-owned business. We have committed to mitigating and eliminating our entire carbon footprint as a Climate Neutral certified brand. In 2022, we became a certified B Corp."
