Regenerative Hospitality
We don't break ground; we heal it. Re-engineering the urban stay for minimum impact.
Our Core Philosophy
"The greenest building is the one that already exists."
Construction is responsible for 39% of global carbon emissions. By focusing exclusively on Adaptive Reuse—transforming underutilized office blocks, warehouses, and historic structures—Lume avoids the massive carbon cost of concrete and steel production. This is urban acupuncture: revitalizing the city from within.
Transformation in Action
From vacant asset to vibrant community hub.

The Materiality Lab
Our pods are precision-engineered environments. We strip away the unnecessary to focus on materials that are renewable, recycled, and restorative.
Bamboo
Used for flooring and detailing. A fast-growing grass that regenerates in 3-5 years, sequestering carbon as it grows.
Recycled PET
Our acoustic wall panels are made from recycled plastic bottles, providing superior sound dampening while reducing landfill waste.
Reclaimed Steel
The structural skeleton of our L-Stack pods utilizes high-grade recycled steel, reducing mining impact.
Organic Cotton
All linens and towels are GOTS certified organic cotton, ensuring no pesticides were used in production.
Quantifiable Impact
We don't just claim sustainability; we measure it. Our adaptive reuse model significantly reduces embodied carbon compared to new builds.
