Buildings account for nearly one third of all global energy consumption and contribute to global carbon emissions in similar proportions. How do buildings, how does architecture have to change to reduce its hunger for energy? How can buildings make use of renewable energies to sustain themselves? What is the role of technology in this transition and what about the human factor? Join us for a conversation with Mireia Luzarraga Alvarez, Takk Architecture, Rufei Wang, Parsons School of Design, and moderated by Jochen Eisenbrand, Vitra Design Museum, Weill am Rhein.
