Designing building facades for the circular economy

The construction industry is one of the largest consumers of materials, with most of them unable to be reused or recycled at the end of their life because they cannot be easily disassembled. During the lifespan of buildings, user requirements, design principles, and regulations change, rendering projects obsolete. Especially regarding facades, the answer to this problem lies in implementing basic principles of the circular economy.
