It has been an exciting adventure helping coordinate two builds for the @kglakademi ADFÆRD / VELFÆRD exhibition which opened last Thursday, including a 2-storey timber Star Home from #Tanzania and a replica of a #COVID19 Emergency Quarantine Facility from the #Philippines.

As an architectural practitioner specialising in where buildings intersect with the Climate Emergency, I am absolutely terrified by how little we are hearing about the scale of change needed to decarbonise buildings and construction. There are 30,000,000 buildings in 🇬🇧 alone.

Are we creating a future none of us asked for, or ever really considered? I recently finished Max Tegmark’s ‘Life 3.0’ where he presents 12 scenarios for what might happen if superintelligence is / isn’t developed 🔮 What would you choose?

Reading the accounts of the young construction professionals who have been on a mentorship journey with @tawahtz these past few years has been both heartwarming and inspiring. I look forward to share their insights and wisdom in an upcoming publication! #womensupportwomen #SDG5
