The construction, heating, cooling and destruction of our buildings is responsible for an enormous amount of CO2 emissions. How can the transformation succeed — and what do the sustainable digital solutions look like?
Could digital solutions be at the forefront of the construction industry's mammoth carbon footprint? Experts agree - they have potential. But the answer to making our buildings "smart" could be more complicated.
How can we rapidly revolutionise the construction industry, and where are digital technologies playing a pivotal role? Sibyl Steuwer from BPIE shares her insights in an interview.
The concept of creating new houses from old materials and components has been around for a long time. Digital material passports are intended to modernise the process.
The CUBE in Dresden proves that carbon concrete is an exciting building material for a successful construction turnaround.
Houses constructed using a simple-build approach leverage high-tech processes for low-tech solutions, as well as smart structural design, to achieve maximum energy efficiency.
Thanks to artificial intelligence, the CUBE Berlin adapts to the needs of its users and at the same time creates more efficient control processes. What does this mean for the future of office work?
Together with the city of Aalen, climate-positive architects, engineers and teachers have planned a futuristic school building.
Just as fungi can contribute to the construction of a building, it can also play a part in breaking down demolition debris.
Living walls are a practical — and beautiful — way of adding greenery while lowering heating emissions in our cities. Here's how technology could be used to aid them.
