Build a Future: From Circularity to Real Zero in Construction

For two days during Melbourne Design Week, Breathe Architecture is hosting a series of speakers and panel discussions in a deep dive into low-carbon, low waste, circular materiality. The discussions will take place at Breathe’s offices in 7 Alfred Street. The event will bring together a small, dedicated audience of designers and specifiers alongside manufacturers, makers and researchers, all focused on addressing construction’s impact on climate and the environment, and how to do better.

Alongside these gatherings there will be a pop-materials library, showcasing a wide range of products and materials that are leading the way in sustainable building. Samples, swatches, boards and blocks from a range of Australia’s leading sustainable material makers and manufacturers— the best in class across circular practices, low carbon and low waste production.

Attendance is intentionally limited, with a small number of tickets made available closer to the date. The aim throughout is to host a series of engaged and meaningful conversations, which only comes from a room of people who are committed to building a better world.
