You're Invited to the Launch of the New Sustainable Spaces Playbook for Hospitality

Join The SRA and Reassemble at the Tate Modern in London to be among the first to explore the insights from the new Sustainable Spaces Playbook, learning how to design and deliver spaces that perform better over time — commercially, operationally and environmentally. 

Hospitality fit-outs can have major environmental and financial impacts and carry long-term operational risk — yet, until now, the sector has lacked a clear, commercially grounded framework for doing things differently. In this new Sustainable Spaces Playbook from Reassemble, you’ll find a comprehensive guide to smarter design, taking a whole-life approach from concept and construction through to end-of-lease.  

The Sustainable Spaces Playbook combines impactful strategies with real-world case studies, covering design for reuse and disassembly, circular procurement, low-carbon materials, modular systems, and approaches to repairability, longevity and end-of-life. It also sets out the environmental and commercial case for adopting these approaches. 

• Date: Wednesday 3rd June
• Time: 10am to 12:30pm
• Location: Level 1 Members Bar, Blavatnik Building, Level 1, Tate Modern, Bankside, London SE1 9TG. Enter into the Blavatnik Building on Sumner Street.

What to expect 

The session will open with David Chenery (Co-Founder, Reassemble), introducing key learnings from the Sustainable Spaces Playbook. This will be followed by a conversation moderated by Juliane Caillouette Noble, CEO of The Sustainable Restaurant Association, with speakers who are already embedding circular thinking into hospitality spaces: Michelle Pollard-Smith (Head of Property, Gail's Bakery) and Chantelle Nicholson (Founder, Apricity). 

The event will conclude with networking and a supplier showcase featuring solutions that support circular fit-outs: KAVA Surfaces transform used coffee grounds into beautiful, resilient surface material, Smile Materials reimagine discarded resources into striking, durable materials, and more to be announced soon. Refreshments provided.

This event is free to attend, but spaces are limited (max. two per business). Industry-only: for those involved in the design, build and operation of hospitality spaces, operators, designers, developers, sustainability leads, investors, suppliers and partners. Register now to secure your spot.
