KELLY BJORK
Seattle-based illustrator Kelly Bjork created all of the adorable Max Brown illustrations you can find all over our hotels and online presence. She describes her style as “simple and deliberate,” and we couldn’t agree more.
JERRY BOTTLE
To reduce plastic and promote Amsterdam’s extremely clean tap water, we collaborated on a custom reusable water bottle with Jerry Bottle. They put 100% of their profits back into clean drinking water projects all over the world.
BAMBOO BRUSH SOCIETY
We designed a custom, biodegradable bamboo toothbrush with the Bamboo Brush Society to reduce the use of plastic toothbrushes. They contribute 1% of sales to nonprofit organizations dedicated to protecting the environment.
