Architecture & the Built Environment
Passive design, building fabric, retrofit, net zero buildings, urban planning and sustainable cities.
What this group is about.
This group covers buildings and the places they stand in. Most of the buildings that will be in use in 2050 have already been built, so retrofit is as much a part of the work as new design.
Members work at every scale, from the performance of a single wall to the climate resilience of a whole city.
- Net-zero and passive building design
- Retrofitting existing building stock
- Smart buildings and building energy management systems
- Embodied carbon and sustainable construction materials
- Urban planning, green infrastructure and climate resilience
- Indoor environment quality and human wellbeing
