BEE was created by Alessandro to fulfil the missing link between sustainable design, construction and implementation in 2010 after a coffee with Grant Horsfield, co-founder of China-based resort brand Naked Retreats. Today, BEE has competed over 200 projects across 25 countries worldwide, working out of six regional offices, but most of its core business remains in Mainland China.

“BEE is instrumental in making buildings more sustainable, and it achieves this without ever picking up a shovel or a protractor. Instead, it operates as a central hub for the design, construction and operations teams. This involves everything from improving the building’s energy efficiency during the design process, minimising waste during construction, and optimising factors such as thermal comfort once the building is operational.”

“I think no matter what services we offer, we will always be positively impacting the construction and design of buildings in one way or another.” – Alessandro Bisagni
