Episode: How 'reversible building' is rethinking the use of buildings over time – ETX Studio
Description: In 2022, demolishing buildings to build new ones is no longer a sustainable strategy. From now on, architects should take into account the potential uses of a building over its lifetime, rather than defining them upstream. This is part of a concept known as "reversible building," and it's a model that is gradually taking shape.
