In a recent conversation with Morgan Ræ for the Colectivo Podcast, we explored how incoming EU regulations are reshaping the future of hospitality, and where established sustainability frameworks can help brands get ahead of the curve.

Morgan is the founder of L'Eautelier, a marine-based design studio focused on hospitality, and her work sits at the intersection of eco-design, materials innovation and regulatory change. At Colectivo, this conversation felt especially relevant to the work we do with organisations navigating sustainability, regulation, culture change and B Corp certification. For many hospitality brands, the next few years will bring growing pressure to rethink packaging, amenities, sourcing, materials and waste.

For a long time, I explained behaviour by looking at the individual. Someone is impatient, chooses not to follow the rules, or just never does the right thing. These explanations felt intuitive because they focused on the person. However, as I learned more about behavioural science, service design and systems thinking, I realised that behaviour doesn’t happen in a vacuum. People are constantly responding to the environments around them, often in ways they don’t even notice. 

From Coastal Problem to Design Opportunity: Rethinking Hospitality Materials with Morgan Ræ

In a recent conversation with Morgan Ræ for the Colectivo Podcast, we explored how eco-design and seaweed-based materials are reshaping the future of hospitality.

Morgan is the founder of L'Eautelier, a marine-based design studio focused on hospitality. Her work looks at how hotels can move beyond conventional materials and reimagine guest experiences through algae-based, bio-based and circular design solutions.

In today's fast-paced world, the concept of sustainability has evolved into a collective responsibility, demanding teamwork and innovative approaches. In this blog post, we will explore how AI tools can enhance collaboration within multidisciplinary teams and address the critical intention-action gap that often hinders progress. Learnings and takeaways have been informed by a recent session on “Resilience by Design: An AI Toolbox Talk for High-Impact Collaboration“ held with Marco van Hout, founder of Metodic.io
