Heathrow

Biodiversity Celebration Book

We recently collaborated with Heathrow’s Environmental Team in Engineering to commemorate a significant milestone: 15 years of receiving the Biodiversity Benchmark award. Our task was to create a 32-page book that celebrates this achievement and underscores Heathrow’s commitment to biodiversity and environmental stewardship.

The challenge:

Heathrow is dedicated to managing approximately 170 hectares across 13 sites for nature conservation, accounting for about 14% of the airport’s total area. We needed to detail Heathrow’s strategic plan, the challenges encountered, future outlooks, accolades, and their engagement with community and sustainability initiatives, all while being visually engaging and informative.

The solution:

We designed a book that balances informative content and visual appeal. Combining photography from Heathrow’s conservation sites and our custom illustrations, we created a narrative that brings to life Heathrow’s biodiversity efforts. In producing the book, we embraced sustainability to match the content’s ethos. Using FSC and Carbon Capture accredited paper, 100% recycled cover boards, biodegradable lamination, wheat-based glue, and recycled thread for binding, we ensured the entirety of the book’s production was environmentally responsible.

The impact:

The finished book was a resounding success, earning praise from Heathrow’s CEO, Thomas Woldbye.

The Environmental Team in Engineering at Heathrow, said:

“We’ve had the pleasure of working with Creative Triangle and can attest to their exceptional professionalism and expertise. The CT team helped to design the book called “Seasons,” that explores the biodiversity of Heathrow Airport. Highly recommended for excellence and patience!”
