Look Down Not Up! Solving the Building Industry's Wasteful Conundrum with Digital and Earthen Construction
Abstract Is earth a bono fide alternative to concrete? Sasha Cisar believes in some cases it is. A trained architect who leads sustainability research at radicant, Switzerland's first digital sustainability bank, he shows us some recently constructed examples. The synthesis of digital technologies with these types of materiality and integrated construction techniques, and their full adoption in the building industry, could reap huge rewards and contribute to climate action.
