Circular and reversible construction is a holistic strategy to increase the sustainability of the built environment. In her pursuit of an economy of closed material cycles, she questions conventional design and construction choices and seeks added value in the short and long term for all involved.
Effectively supporting practice in those design and construction choices is therefore crucial to make the transition to a circular economy feasible and successful for everyone. As our research has shown, well thought-out and freely accessible design tools are indispensable for that support.
We are therefore enthusiastic about the initiative that Brussels Environment is taking as a regulatory but above all inspiring policy actor to further develop and implement these design instruments. As a team, VUB Architectural Engineering is therefore happy to support this development.
