Epoch Institute
The Epoch office was launched in 2020 with a mission to inspire and educate businesses and communities to adopt environmentally conscious values so that both people and nature can thrive into the future. With construction waste contributing to 46% of landfill in Australia, Epoch was motivated to eliminate waste across all lines of the construction chain.
By upcycling and recycling materials, in combination with sustainable on-site behaviours and tree planting, this project completely offset its carbon footprint.
