Our first UK event of 2025 was an inspiring tour of @mcm_uk, where Ana Rita Martins and Maria Bavio shared how being a B Corp company shapes their approach to design.

The design of their studio showcases their core values, incorporating circular design concepts, sustainable materials, and second-life furniture and products.

MCM’s commitment to B Corp values also extends to their supply chain and companies they partner with, such as with @theglasshousebotanics, a social enterprise that maintains the studio’s vibrant greenery while offering second chances to women prisoners nearing the end of their sentences.

We were privileged to hear from Netti Braun-Rosen from The Glasshouse, who shared her powerful and inspiring story.

As part of the studio tour event—and in alignment with empowering women—Lauren Parmar (@moodldn.co) led a dynamic coaching taster session. She guided the group in setting meaningful intentions for 2025 and provided practical tools to help us shape a new self-concept for the year ahead.
