Model No. was founded to rethink and elevate our experience in the spaces we design and inhabit. We design and make furnishings that harmonize with the space, lift the human experience, and eliminate our impact on the environment. Our collaborators - architects and design professionals - see the problem: Building and the turnover of commercial interiors generate well-over a third of the worlds CO2 emissions and an endless stream of waste. With these mission-driven partners, we create spaces we want without the waste. Circular at our core, Model No. achieves this through elevated design, regenerative and biodegradable materials, and 3D manufacturing.
