A Zero-Waste Approach in the Design of Buildings: Introducing a new way of approaching sustainability in buildings with a conceptual industrial building design as an illustrative example.

Climate change and environmental issues are important in today’s society. The earth is being depleted of its resources and the changing climate could irreversibly change the planet for the worse. Sustainable buildings are mostly optimised for the use phase but neglect end of life scenarios. Buildings are often demolished and materials are dumped...

Why the sun sucks - Architects versus the sun

This "designers' manual" is made during the TIDO-course AR0531 Innovation and Sustainability This manual will show how not to design with the Sun. By showing examples how buildings have failed that have not taken the Sun and its effects in consideration, one should get a clearer picture of how you should design.

Becomming contextually heterogeneous: Contextual Amnesia: Fences, nettles, barking dogs and (-)housewifes

Investigation and exploration on a city that cannot escape the pull of global media towards it because of its heavily loaded history. Using multiple experiments to abandon veiled perceptions in order to get in a state of continuity, without preconceptions.
