There are plenty of recurring themes in the life of a magazine like ours, but none are more important than sustainability. Last year’s COP26 conference in Glasgow focused attention on the work that governments around the world need to do if we are to stand any chance of arresting the potential catastrophic rise in global temperatures and slow the speed of climate change.
From energy efficiency, water conservation, innovative material selection, and designing for longevity, all of these topics and more will feature prominently in our upcoming content. It is no longer a ‘nice to have’ or a premium extra – sustainable thinking throughout the design process needs to truly transition from good practice to standard practice.
