Kukio Small Town Maui DesignFootprint.org

Kuki‘o
We began working with Kuki‘o at the beginning of the development phase of the project. The roads were still being carved out of the Kona lava fields, they didn't have business cards and the roof of what was to become the most famous Sales Hale in the Hawaiian islands was still in Africa. Read case study.

Olowalu Town
Olowalu has traditionally been a population center on Maui during pre and post-contact times. With the decline of the sugar industry, the small plantation town closed down. Dave Ward and Bill Frampton realized that the current development patterns on Maui left few options for local residents who wanted to raise their families in a traditional Maui small town community. Read case study.

DesignFootprint.org
This summer Info Grafik researched, wrote and designed a booklet on sustainable graphic design for the local chapter of the AIGA. As we learned more, it became obvious that graphic designers, their clients, printing companies and paper companies are responsible for a very large environmental footprint. How we use paper has a tremendous impact on our planet. Download the booklet and learn how you can reduce your footprint.

Info Grafik Launches Design Footprint Consulting Practice

paper looms large on the planetary landscape

We are living in turbulent, unpredictable times. Energy costs are increasing, marketing budgets are decreasing, customer priorities are shifting and the environmental costs of doing business as usual are completely unsustainable.

We need to make sure that we are spending our money efficiently and effectively while minimizing our carbon footprint.

Info Grafik has created a new practice area that is designed to help clients minimize their environmental footprint while maximizing the efficiency of their communication programs. For example, how we use paper looms large on the planetary landscape:
  • Paper is the 3rd largest global greenhouse gas emitter
  • It is the 3rd largest global energy user
  • One out of 3 trees that is harvested becomes paper
  • One third of all trash in US landfills is paper
  • Paper is the largest global industrial water user

How we use paper is just one factor we need to consider. For more information about how you can streamline your communication program and reduce your carbon footprint, please email Oren Schlieman.
