Welcome to The Build 🙌

On @TheB1M, we cover some of the biggest and most exciting feats of construction on the planet, but behind every project are incredible people with decades of experience and stories that honestly deserve more time — and that’s what The Build is for.

You're going to hear all about how the world is built, explained by the people who built it, along with some pretty epic behind-the-scenes access.

A few years back we brought you our Tomorrow’s Build channel which set out how we construct the future, now we’re evolving that into The Build — getting closer to the projects, the sites and, most importantly, the people making them happen.

There are three new videos up to watch on our YouTube channel already, check them out at the link in our bio 🏗️

Let's build our world like this. As #COP28 begins in Dubai, we've curated some awesome content from across @TomorrowsBuild and @TheB1M, all about how to design and construct in a better, more sustainable way - https://t.co/KwxxOOGZiy #construction #architecture #climate

This conceptual steel and sustainably-sourced mass timber research lab would be highly adaptable. Conceived by @NBBJDesign, "Regenerative Lab" would flex as new technologies emerge and needs change. It could even be converted to residential, then back to a research use if needed.
