Do Build
How to make and lead a business the world needs.
Alan Moore
The world of business is changing. The single pursuit of ‘profit at any cost’ has been replaced by a desire to build companies that create a better future — and enjoy commercial success.
In Do Build, Alan Moore draws on his years of research into some of the most pioneering and progressive businesses on the planet. By speaking to their purpose-driven founders, he discovers that it is possible to lead with generosity, have a transparent supply chain, design products and services that are considered and joyful, and create a company culture where individuals flourish.
By sharing examples of best practice, Moore invites us to create a different type of business: one that will regenerate and restore our economy, our environment, and our civilisation.

Reviews
This may be the most enlightened, concise, and extraordinary book on business ever written. It could be said that true beauty and business have never met. They do here. Business has long known how to steal the future. Alan Moore describes flawlessly how it can heal the future.
Paul Hawken, author & environmentalist
Do Build is the pocket guide to a renaissance. It starts here. With the promise of something better.
Richard Brophy
Do Build offers hope, vision and practical ideas for creating a new model for businesses and indeed us all, post-Covid. What joy to see a philosophy that starts from beauty, and embraces regenerative principles and empathy at its very heart. Read this book, reshape your life and your business, and we all stand a chance of making a better future for everyone, including the planet.
Fiona Reynolds, author of The Fight for Beauty
Business can do good. Alan is passionate about the contribution that design can offer...in the journey towards kinder and more generous work. This is a beautiful book.
Professor Peter Childs
Beauty. Elegance. Joyful. Regenerative. If these words strike you as essential to how business ought to be done today, then you simply must read Do Build and learn how you make a difference in the world. And if these words seem odd to you, then you certainly should read Alan's provocative and thoughtful book to shift your perspective and understand, perhaps for the first time, why you are in business.
B. Joseph Pine II, co-author of The Experience Economy
Alan Moore invites us to imagine a world where both form and function are beautiful, elegant, and joyful to behold - and then shows us that this world is already here, although not yet well distributed. We can have a world where humans and the natural world thrive in harmony.
