Jamestown’s Groot Handelsgebouw in Rotterdam has been nominated for a People's Choice BREEAM Award, and you can cast your vote today at this link: https://lnkd.in/dzed3WMj BREEAM is a highly esteemed global recognition in the environmental, social, and governance field. ESG initiatives are often a challenge in historic buildings, but we believe part of our historic stewardship of monument buildings includes making them sustainable for future generations. Last year, we received an 'Excellent 4-star' rating - making the property the first Dutch national monument to achieve that recognition. #BREEAM #JamestownEurope #GrootHandelsgebouw #AdaptiveReuse

AJ100 Award Winning Part 1 Architectural Assistant and Sustainability Consultant pushing for regenerative systems change in the built environment
*Chetwoods Materials Monday* This week, we are spotlighting Vestre, a Norwegian furniture manufacturer who are creating more sustainable urban solutions. Vestre is addressing sustainability through multiple aspects of their manufacturing process - from transport, to material selection, to the factory facility itself. Vestre prioritise lower embodied carbon materials, such as Nordic steel, which Vestre say has a 20% reduction in carbon emissions compared to steel from other countries. Additionally, Vestre use Hydro CIRCAL aluminium which guarantees a minimum of 75% recycled content; and exclusively use FSC and PEFC certified, locally grown timber. Vestre is also actively working towards zero-emission transport, and apparently, they have influenced their whole value chain to make swaps to fossil fuel-free transport options. Their factory, The Plus by BIG, is recognised as the ‘world’s most sustainable furniture factory’. Constructed from engineered timber, and nestled within a forest, the factory incorporates playful colours that serve as wayfinding tools. The surrounding area is kept completely open to the public, who are even encourage to walk onto the roof of the factory itself – a tribute to Norway’s traditional ‘right to roam’ ethos. To find out more about Vestre’s products, processes, and facilities, visit their website: https://lnkd.in/e9uXbYfe Welcome to #chetwoodsmaterialsmonday where we share the newest more sustainable materials, and discuss news and current events related to sustainable and regenerative material selection. #sustainableconstruction #sustainablearchitecture #embodiedcarbon #sustainablefurniture #theplus #climatecrisis #globalwarming #climateaction

Already online the report on #circular strategies for the #building sector particularly focusing on Community Land Trusts, we I shared the experience of circularity of La Borda. Download the report here https://lnkd.in/db_isgfY
Hoe kan governance worden ingezet om de circulaire transitie in de gebouwde omgeving aan te jagen? In dit kersverse whitepaper, ondersteund door de Circular Building Coalition, hebben onze Thieme Hennis en Thijs Gieben samen met Laura Parker-Tong (European Community Land Trust Network) onderzocht hoe Community Land Trusts kunnen worden ingezet voor circulariteit in een rechtvaardige transitie. In het paper leggen we uit waarom het CLT model zo geschikt is voor een rechtvaardige circulaire transitie, op welke manier CLTs bijdragen aan circulariteit en stellen we 3 pijlers voor om CLT projecten/organisaties in staat te stellen circulariteit te implementeren, en tegelijkertijd de circulaire impact van CLTs aan het licht te stellen. Interesse? Lees het whitepaper hier: https://lnkd.in/dsQYYv2A Heel veel dank aan Gerard Roemers en Job Papineau Salm van Metabolic voor hun begeleiding en steun, en aan alle CLTs voor hun waardevolle bijdragen.
