Corporate social responsibility

Humanscale CSR 24

Working with Humanscale Sustainability, Marketing and Design Leads in their New York headquarters, I’ve led the direction, design, editing and production for their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Report since 2019.

Published in the summer of 2025, Humanscale's 2024 Corporate Social Responsibility report showcases performance measured during the 2024 calendar year. it's designed in accordance with GRI Standards and ISO 9660 reporting guidelines. It's ambitious in scope, including detailed impact data, case studies, and progress towards future goals.

Each year highlights a major achievement by the Sustainability team; CSR24 spotlights B—Corp Certification.

Summary

As lifelong environmentalists, we share a deep commitment to a healthier planet.

In a world full of often blatant disinformation and greenwashing, it's refreshing and essential to promote companies that deliver real, verifiable positive impacts.

Humanscale stands out as a true leader in authentic sustainability. From pioneering net-positive products that offset more carbon, water, and energy than they use, to achieving over 94% waste diversion and earning B—Corp certification, their work is grounded in transparency and real results.

I've always been proud of our collaboration with them. Together, we're helping to prove that genuine innovation can drive meaningful change.

Also, Humanscale products are genuinely as beautiful as they are functional.
