Insightful talk about sustainable housing at various scales and the ‘art’ of pre-fabrication. He talks about the interesting relationships between market & profits with architecture and a social structure that can be sustainable through collaboration and strong environmental ethos in business.
Very cool stuff with pre-fabrication and smart home technology which speaks sustainability like no other modern construction.
