Circular Economy in Construction (2019)

From the book introduction. Reversible Building is seen as a backbone of circular building and circular economy in construction. This publication explores a new perception of future buildings which are dynamic/reversible structures built with exchangeable modules and products for multiple use. A perception which sees a building not as a finished static product, but as an ever evolving structure which keeps up with the time, new technological developments and user requirements. A building which is upgradable and accommodates changing user needs and technologies over time. A building which is always fit for purpose while no m² of material is wasted during the transformation and upgrading processes and while each m² of material has valuable applications during its whole life (through multiple use options).
