Research and Educating architects for a climate Resilient Future

Beschrijving

The building industry is facing many challenges due to climate change, depletion of materials, energy transition and loss of biodiversity. To develop sustainable, forward-looking architectural designs that can address all these challenges, new toolboxes must be created to solve multiple problems in one go. A design methodology is proposed that takes a holistic approach and addresses multiple aspects simultaneously. Three key drivers have been explored, along with approaches to implement them in designs: 'Build from nature', 'Build with nature' and 'Build and recycle'. This article showcases examples from education-, research-projects and two case studies where biobased materials, integrating nature and re-use of buildings are simultaneously applied in the design to decarbonise architecture.
