How sustainable design of existing buildings can shape the future of our cities
Innovative, biobased and circular techniques are already widely used in new architecture. But did you know that the biggest sustainability challenge lies within our existing cities? Reimagining and upgrading what is already built can make a major contribution to tackling the climate crisis. It’s time to explore how design can help shift the tide. Join us as we collectively envision the sustainable city of tomorrow.
About Everything Around Us
Everything Around Us is a series that reimagines the city from the ground up. Take a moment to look around—everything you see has been designed by people: homes, bridges, parks, furniture, walls. But what if we could remake everything? What would it look like? Through a series of explainers and meetups, this programme explores how things can be radically different—and how that change is already underway.
Who it’s for: Designers, investors, builders, producers, policymakers and everybody interested in the topic
Goal: To explore with designers how promising sustainable innovations can help shape an inclusive and resilient future for our existing urban environments.
