Ricky will explore how a radical reimagining of conventional approaches to materials can shape the way we design buildings in response to today’s climate challenges. He will share innovative projects from the Sustainable Technologies studio at the University of Plymouth's Architecture department. These projects rethink traditional ways of building and suggest fresh, exciting ways to use materials that address issues like resource shortages, decentralization, climate action, and new technologies in architecture.
