Organizations that know they need to shift — and want someone who's done the groundwork.

My clients are making real decisions about buildings, materials, sourcing, and strategy. They don't need another 100-page report. They need someone who understands both the systems and the site.

--who is this for

Companies & Brands

Evaluating bio-based alternatives for products, packaging, or built-environment applications.

Architects & Designers

Specifying bamboo and bio-based materials with confidence — aesthetically, structurally, and in compliance.

NGOs & Public Sector

Scoping regenerative pilots, supply chain initiatives, and policy-relevant research.

Practical work at the intersection of materials, nature, and the built environment.

Regenerative & Bio-Based Buildings

Project-based

Designing and scoping buildings that give back more than they take. Advisory on bio-based materials, circular design principles, and net-positive outcomes — grounded in real construction practice.

01

Bamboo & Bio-Based Supply Chains

Ongoing or project-based

Connecting European buyers with verified suppliers of bamboo and bio-based materials. Sourcing strategy, supplier qualification, and compliance — without the overhead of a large consultancy.

Net Zero & Decarbonization Strategy

2–5 day sprints or ongoing

Supporting organizations and municipalities in developing and implementing carbon reduction strategies — across buildings, operations, and mobility. Focused advisory, clear plans, real next steps.

Speaking & Education

Guest lectures

Talks and selected teaching engagements for architects, sustainability teams, and material specifiers. Recent: Warsaw University of Technology. Past teaching: AIA NY Center for Architecture, USGBC, CCNY.

Two decades at the intersection of building, materials, and systems change.

--about

I'm Brian — a sustainability strategist with a design-build and project management background, operating across EU and US contexts. I work practically and specifically: sourcing decisions, pilot designs, supply chain architecture, building strategy. Less slide deck, more site visit.e visit.

Alongside client work, I founded the Dutch Bamboo Foundation to help connect Europe's bamboo value chain, and I lead the Regenerative Solutions Initiative — developing new models for financing the people who regenerate ecosystems. These commitments sharpen my thinking, but my advisory practice stays focused on helping clients make decisions and ship projects.

Design-Build Background

Project management roots — I understand how things actually get built

Working notes from the practice.

Short pieces on bamboo, bio-based materials, the built environment, and what I'm learning in the field. Posted irregularly, whenever there's something worth writing down.
