Sustainable practices are becoming more commonplace for architects and designers
Trend - With sustainability as a top priority, architects and designers are embracing different eco-friendly concepts. "Reversible design" is the architecture of structures that can be easily deconstructed, reused, or where parts can be removed and added easily.
Insight - Contemporary consumers are wary of the impending consequences of climate change and a large number of them are increasingly aware that simply shifting their lifestyle and practicing ecological mindfulness are likely not enough. As a result, many are increasingly demanding that brands and creators take the environment into consideration. In doing so, individuals feel more at ease and proud of their advocacy for a better future.
