Model No. was founded to rethink and elevate our experience in the spaces we design and inhabit. We design and make furnishings that harmonize with the space, lift the human experience, and eliminate our impact on the environment. Our collaborators - architects and design professionals - see the problem: Building and the turnover of commercial interiors generate well-over a third of the worlds CO2 emissions and an endless stream of waste. With these mission-driven partners, we create spaces we want without the waste. Circular at our core, Model No. achieves this through elevated design, regenerative and biodegradable materials, and 3D manufacturing.

Nobell Foods is creating cheese and other dairy products from plant-derived dairy proteins for the 99% of people who are unwilling to compromise on taste and price. Worldwide dairy production accounts for 40% of global livestock emissions. In the US, the dairy industry is responsible for 2% of the nation`s greenhouse gas emissions. And a growing chunk of that dairy consumption is coming from cheese. Our team is made up of passionate scientists, explorers, and storytellers on a mission to radically change the way we make food, so it`s better for you, the animals and the planet. We are backed by Bill Gates` climate fund Breakthrough Energy Ventures, Andreessen Horowitz, and Robert Downey Jr.`s footprint coalition.
