Sustainability. The impact of architectural practices.

This episode will certainly make you reflect on the significant impact of architectural practice. It’s important to be informed in order to envision a more responsible future. The conversation dedicated to sustainability brings together architects Francisco Fonseca and Ana Perini, moderated by Ricardo Camacho.
In this conversation, Francisco Fonseca, architect at Oficina Pedrez, takes us on a passionate journey through his experiences at Oficina Pedrez. Convinced that the industry will have to turn to the forest as its main supplier, Francisco Fonseca talks about sustainability that pays attention to waste, rooting and the origin of materials in order to balance the carbon and energy equation.
We also spoke to Ana Perini, an architect at Arolla, and it was essential to get to know her perspective and learn about the most appreciated characteristics of wood and the construction system used by the company.
In the words of the guests, we try to learn about and reflect on the impact of architecture, questioning how we can envision a more responsible future.
