Really happy to see @RIBAJ demonstrating smart materials by replacing the plastic wrapping with fully compostable potato starch packaging 👍 Imagine the impact if other magazines did the same! #architecture #RIBA #RIBAJ #ecofriendly #Sustainability

Are we going to see a drop in Architects post Brexit?
Since the referendum there has been a decrease in professionals registered from the EU, with 'Architects' being added to the 'Shortage Occupation List' this autumn.

@ecominimalnick As my home is a typical new build property rolled out across the UK, featuring large windows facing south, no solar shading & poorly fitted glazing units, we are enjoying a barmy 31c inside. I don’t have to look far to see what not to do!

@LABC_Warranty Really good article with plenty of points that are not only easy to adopt when planning bathrooms but easy to convey to clients when explaining the benefits of saving energy and money.

Really good article on going green in the bathroom from how to save water, energy efficient fittings, and sustainable flooring. After seeing how beautiful cork flooring can be, I'm determined to get it into a project! 🌿

Today the Royal Institute of British Architects announced an environmental & climate emergency with a five-year plan towards a net-zero built environment. #RIBA #Architect #Sustainability #EcoHome https://t.co/OKIX3C1e5G

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

Absolutely beggars belief

In what world does it make sense - having declared a #ClimateEmergency - to make measures to address the emergency more expensive?

How much does a project cost? The golden question.
Unfortunately there's no simple answer, however keep these points in mind & you'll be able to anticipate & control the biggest offenders that rise construction costs ...
