Dorte Mandrup | What makes a sustainable building? (English episode)

Humans in the Anthropocene are currently focusing on the consequences of their own innovation achievements. With a 50% share of global CO2 emissions, the construction industry plays a decisive role, and the industry is increasingly turning its attention to the embodied energy determined in construction and no longer just to the emissions from its use. It is clear that the need for innovation in this sector is immense, and the role of architecture is being redefined accordingly. Martin Pauli, Head of Global Circular Economy Services at Arup, discusses with Danish architect Dorte Mandrup how the architecture industry needs to reposition itself in light of these new challenges that the sector is facing. Our guest, renowned architect Dorte Mandrup, wants to use her projects to move the industry toward a more conscious approach to sustainability. She calls for more international knowledge transfer and greater specialization in architectural practices - and a caring eye for context and detail.
