On Sustainability:

We believe shifting to more sustainable practices in product development is an imperative initiative. Sustainability is a foundational component of good design and efficient production; at this point in our globalized economy we have a personal and social responsibility to do things differently. The only way forward is by rethinking design systems for the future of the planet and our industry; there is no linear order to how we need to implement it. The KAB agency has risen to the occasion and seeks to help brands build upon on this initiative without compromising design integrity.
