Were you also confused reading this title? It seems a bit contradictory doesn't it, to claim that you can create new infrastructure without the energy and material requirements? Well, it is not technically true, but we can certainly come much closer than is currently accepted industry-wise! 

This is where Superuse Studios comes in. Superuse focuses on circular architecture, meaning that their starting materials have already been start, middle and end materials, and would have otherwise been thrown away. 

Superuse sees the value of these raw materials, like wood, concrete, or even wind turbines, and uses them innovatively to create a memorable space, for its low environmental impact as well as its eye-catching looks. 

For our last episode of Green Career Talks, I got the chance to speak with Jos de Krieger from Superuse. We chatted about how Superuse fits into BlueCity, a Rotterdam-based 'example city' for a circular future, what lead to Jos joining Superuse himself, and some key tips he shared for any young person looking for a career in sustainability (that's you!). 

It has been a pleasure making these talks, we hope you all were able to learn something about the many opportunities in sustainability and maybe even find a startup you might be working with later on!

Happy listening!
