At 1 Lasam, the practice of “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle” holds true in every detail no matter how minute. 1 Lasam is sustainable not only through its design but also by its functionality. All business entities of BVH have in the course of making 1 Lasam a reality, contributed and repurposed various materials to the green building.

From writing pads of foldable study chairs as table tops to cement formwork as planter boxes, as well as turning old tree stumps into garden paths, old and discarded materials are given a new lease of life at 1 Lasam. There is even an old snooker table, which has been refashioned as a meeting table, and a golf tin man driving a golf buggy.

Greenery and shrubs visible throughout the building were transplanted from other BVH properties.
