“The distinction between theme parks and urban venues is rapidly dissolving”

September 17, 2024 Shane Reiner-Roth 0

As “immersive experiences” continue to proliferate, Shane Reiner-Roth considers the implications for our relationship with architecture and the built environment. It was not long ago that advancements in OLED displays, projection-mapping and digital signage appeared to be the key to reinvigorating art and architecture, as well as public interest in both of these fields.

Recycling “breakthrough” could usher in zero-emissions cement

May 31, 2024 Rima Sabina Aouf 0

Researchers at the University of Cambridge have devised a way of cheaply producing low-carbon concrete at scale by making use of waste cement and the steel industry’s electric arc furnaces. The method developed by the engineers involves recycling old cement from demolished buildings by heating it up and reactivating the compounds within it. Key to
