We believe that a better future for our industry and for the planet we call home will only be achieved when every business steps up and takes responsibility. Responsibility to the next generation, to the environment and to those who don’t have the same advantages.

This latest issue of Design Research Unit’s publication IA: Intelligent Architecture focuses on ‘Architecture and the Climate’. What can we do as architects and designers to take necessary positive action.

The articles explore processes, predict outcomes and suggest tools to be applied to the built environment; where we can use our skills to best effect and maximum contribution. From what is means to be an architect in a climate emergency to analysing the layers of a building fabric; climatically astute modular construction and Smart Vernacular, to what inclusion has to do with Sustainability.

Through our collective skill and commitment to collaboration, we hope that solutions and the application of best practice on the projects we are involved in will make a difference.
