Spatial Practices beyond New Construction Symposium

Description

New construction and demolition are among the world’s most significant contributors to carbon emissions, the use of energy and natural resources, waste generation, and biodiversity loss. There is an urgent need to address spatial needs in more sustainable ways. Yet, this calls for a fundamental paradigm shift in values, thinking, and practices surrounding the built environment. How can we achieve such a paradigm shift? What kinds of spatial practices would enable humankind to fit within the planetary boundaries?

The symposium on Spatial Practices beyond New Construction was a public opening event of the Aalto ARTS Summer School 2025. The event opened up diverse viewpoints on this issue: the role of architecture in the climate emergency, spatial practices focused on care and stewardship, and the potential of critical futures approaches and transdisciplinary perspectives in advancing a paradigm shift.
