SXSW 2019

Circularity Brought into Practice

Description:

As an architect and part of the Dutch creative industry, I want to talk about how to bring circularity into practice. Circularity is the next step in sustainability, with a focus on the current and future scarcity of materials. It is a very new topic, and there are very few examples yet of circular buildings. I am architect of such a circular building.
How to design and build according to these new principles, never applied before to buildings? It was pioneering work, and I want to talk about lessons learned, how circularity requires a different mindset and aesthetics, a different way of working, and give design tools to work with.
