Innovation Process
Questions 2011
1. What kind of building and
façade trends are to be
expected?
2. Is reacting to trends enough of
innovation?
3. How to close the strategic gap
between the F&R innovation
and the world architecture and
building trends
― Look for the right networks:
Universities, research institutes, parametric designers, suppliers…..
― Research in the right directions
― Enforce evolution true portfolio management and revies

circular Economie

73. The Future Envelope 12 final event 20-21 May 2019, Bolzano
As part of the “London Design Festival”,
Arup has collaborated with FRENER &
REIFER and BAM
to create the Circular Building,
The partners have teamed up
to apply and test circular
economy principles in the construction
industry by
asking the following question:
“Can we design a building where, at
the end of its life, all its components
and materials
can be re-used, re-manufactured,
just at least re-cycled?”
Circular Building ― Installation and exhibition in London
