Actions always speak louder than words when it comes to matters of sustainability for Swiss luxury kitchen appliances firm V-Zug. The brand manufactures its products as efficiently as possible, tightens the loop on the circular economy, and has been carbon neutral since 2020-a remarkable milestone the brand prefers to "achieve first, and talk about it second".
V-Zug also has a keen eye for spotting like-minded partners, hence its partnership with the Tatler Homes Design Awards last year. Together with the Tatler Homes Singapore team, it identified the eco-conscious work of three architectural firms and honoured them with the Sustainability Champions accolade.
This year, solidifying the partnership into a tradition in honouring sustainable projects, V-Zug has returned as a Tatler Homes Design Awards partner in a special new category: Best Adaptive Reuse. The new category was established to recognise those who expertly wield adaptive reuse as an approach to sustainability in the built industry. V-Zug is collaborating with Tatler Homes Singapore to recognise three Best Adaptive Reuse projects across diverse building typologies. The three projects are 21 Carpenter hotel in Singapore by Woha Architects, Penang Heritage Mansion in Malaysia by RT+Q Architects, and Ola Hale Restaurant & Bar in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam by Chio Architects.
