Circular economy design: the cavalry charging over the hill, with Duncan Baker-Brown

Duncan Baker-Brown is an award-winning architect, senior lecturer at University of Brighton, acclaimed author of The Reuse Atlas and a member of the judging panel for the Architects Journal Retrofit Awards. For over 25 years he has focussed his practice, teaching and research on Sustainable Design and closed loop systems. Duncan and I had a wide ranging conversation, which included

how to activate the recent spate of climate emergency Declarations by professional bodies and public authorities
the scale of the challenge and the size of the opportunity that UK construction represents
where we need to concentrate our efforts to scale and speed-up the changes which our situation demands
the role of data in making reuse easy and scalable
restorative design and how the story-telling around circular economy sets it apart from 'sustainability'
what ARE closed loops?
