About us
We were disillusioned by the environmental damage and cost of traditional office fit-out approaches, so we set out to create a better one.
This journey began in the 1990’s when Greg Lavery recognised the environmental damage caused by prevailing building design practices while working as a civil/structural engineer with ARUP. His PhD examined more sustainable ways to design and build offices. Some of his findings have become standard practice, such as in the WELL standard and NABERS. Other design principles have yet to be adopted – these are now an integral part of Nezo Interiors’ approach.
In parallel, as Paul Gaughan was pursuing his 35-year career delivering high quality fit-outs, he grew increasingly frustrated with the waste and inefficiencies of the linear economy. The Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership introduced him to a better way to build, harnessing circular solutions.
Greg and Paul joined forces to create Nezo Interiors, an alliance between Circular Economy furnishings company Rype Office and construction company Lumybel, working together to transform the wasteful fit-out sector.
Nezo is an abbreviation of Net Zero Carbon, reflecting the passion of the team to drive the greenhouse gas emission reductions – as well as reducing costs.
We work collaboratively and welcome other sustainability-focussed designers and delivery experts to join us for a project or ongoing. Please contact us if you are a designer and share our passion for a more sustainable future.
