Places Should be for Everyone

At edge we believe that places should be for everyone, and we instinctively know that great places bring joy to everyday moments. When we design with children and young people in mind, we don’t create places just for kids, we create places that are calmer, healthier, more welcoming, more resilient and more joyful for everyone!

Some more exciting edge people news to start the w Some more exciting edge people news to start the week - a big official WELCOME to Luke, who has joined us in our Birmingham office as Senior Graphic Designer! 🤩 Here are some fun facts about the lovely Luke: 🌟 Luke loves jump roping. 🌟 Luke lives on the British waterways on his canal boat ‘Alf’. 🌟 He has recently joined an adults gymnastics group! 🌟 Luke has an all-black cat called Ziva (Ziva the Diva when she’s being chaotic). 🌟 Luke loves buying tools he doesn’t need for DIY jobs that “are easier for me to do myself.” 🌟 He has an unhealthy relationship with wide leg trousers, but this will never change. 🌟 Luke’s superpower is dancing like a crazy person completely sober. Half a lemonade and he’s up on the dance floor no matter the occasion. Welcome to the team Luke! 💖
Celebrating progress towards a cleaner, healthier Celebrating progress towards a cleaner, healthier future! 🌎 Last week, we were delighted to take part in the 3rd session of the Thame Sustainability Champion Awards - Waste, perfectly timed with Zero Waste Week - an important annual campaign highlighting the difference we can all make by reducing waste and rethinking how we use resources. We’re also incredibly proud to share that we’ve achieved Plastic Free Champion status through Surfers Against Sewage Plastic Free Communities! 🌊 Across our Thame and Brum offices, we’ve been making simple but meaningful changes - reducing single-use plastics and switching to reusable and recycled alternatives wherever possible. Small changes can lead to big environmental gains, and we’re committed to continuing that journey 💚♻️ Here’s to making better choices, reducing waste and working together towards a more sustainable future! #PlasticFreeCommunities #ZeroWasteWeek #Sustainability #ThameTownCouncil #SurfersAgainstSewage
Birmingham Park(ing) Day is just three days away! Birmingham Park(ing) Day is just three days away! Will you be joining us? We’re excited to be popping up with a mini ‘parklet’ celebrating some of the smallest and most important residents of our green spaces. 🐝 💚 Along with our friends from Tyler Grange and Tinkers Trolley, we’ll be planting autumn seeds chosen with insects and pollinators in mind, getting creative with pavement chalk, and striking a pose or two in our insect-themed photo booth! 📍 Come and find us on Caroline Street in the Jewellery Quarter, and help us give the tiny creatures that help our plants grow, our ecosystems thrive, and our cities bloom some love! 💖 Dogs very welcome (and encouraged). #BrumInBloom #BrumParkingDay #Birmingham
