Studio Wood Lush Green Hub Tour
After popular demand, on the 21st July 2026, we hosted together with the team at Lush a second behind-the-scenes tour of Lush’s Green Hub. We welcomed a handful of clients and friends of the studio for a tour of the Green Hub, followed by some honest conversations around ethics, sustainability, and packaging.

Following the fantastic response to last year's visit, on 21st July Studio Wood returned to Lush's pioneering Green Hub in Poole, Dorset for a second behind-the-scenes tour. Bringing together a new group of clients, collaborators and friends of the studio, the morning was an opportunity to connect with like-minded people who share a passion for purposeful design, innovation and circular thinking.
In partnership with the brilliant team at Lush, we once again stepped inside the Green Hub, an inspiring space where materials are given a second life and sustainability is embedded into everyday operations. While the destination was familiar, the conversations were entirely new, with fresh perspectives, questions and ideas sparked by seeing how one of the UK's most forward-thinking brands puts its values into practice.

We were delighted to welcome a fantastic group of people from brands aspiring to make a positive impact in their own industries, including Citizens of Soil, Gozney, Kohler Mira, Mustard Made, Naked Paper, Smol, Tentbox and VaultX. The morning was filled with thoughtful conversations, new connections and plenty of inspiration, all accompanied by the unmistakable scent of Lush.
The visit began with teas and coffee and a chance to catch up before Studio Wood's Managing Director, Sophie Godfrey, welcomed everyone and introduced the morning. From there, Alex from the Lush Green Hub team led us on a tour of the facility, sharing how Lush is rethinking waste through innovative recycling processes, material recovery and circular design principles. It was an opportunity to see first-hand how sustainability is woven into the day-to-day running of the business, with practical ideas and insights that sparked plenty of discussion along the way.

After the tour, guests heard from several members of the Lush team, including Ruth (Environmental & Earthcare Partner), Nick (Creative Buyer) and Brigitte (Packaging & R&D Manager). Together they shared an honest look at how sustainability influences every part of the business, from responsible sourcing and supplier relationships to packaging innovation and long-term systems thinking. Their openness about both the opportunities and challenges made for an engaging discussion and sparked plenty of thoughtful questions from the group.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to the conversations throughout the morning. We're especially grateful to the Lush team for welcoming us back to the Green Hub and for generously sharing their knowledge and experience. Special thanks to Elisha and Alex and the wider Green Hub team for making the visit so insightful and inspiring.
The response since the event has been incredibly encouraging, and we're excited to continue creating opportunities for like-minded brands and people to connect, learn from one another and share ideas. Here's to many more conversations like these.
