The Importance of Dynamic Evolving Architecture

Broken World thinking encourages us to view existing buildings through a new lens, shifting our focus on sustainability from absolute measures like carbon emissions and energy consumption to circularity within the built environment. Existing and historic buildings transform from hard-to-treat assets into vital components of our sustainable future. Circularity in the built environment requires us to prioritise building reuse and adaptability over more conventional sustainability measures. The reprioritisation of building maintenance, alongside dynamic and evolutionary change, and a focus on building services, enables existing buildings to become part of the solution for our sustainable future.
