The Green Design 100
Call it responsibility or accountability. Or simple popular demand. The rarefied world of design is embracing the environment as never before. Top architects are implementing revolutionary methods. Fashion and furniture mainstays are manufacturing products using sustainable materials. And luxury empires are establishing credos on issues their customers are still waking up to. Behind the scenes, trailblazing executives are taking big risks to make it all happen — beautifully.
Hyatt at Olive 8 Seattle
Not a typical big-city hotel, the Hyatt at Olive 8 embraces nature. It has an 8,355-sq.-ft. living rooftop, and with an all-glass façade, 75% of its interior spaces are graced with daylight. The hotel's Elaia spa uses all-natural ingredients for treatments like Olive Therapy and Market Fresh.
