42 Roles in the Built Environment - Architectural Technologist

We’ve gone full circle with this, years ago products were designed to last, they were built with quality materials and craftsmanship and workmanship and they were handed down like heirlooms almost. Then in recent years, sadly we’ve gone through a period of fast fashion, where we’re using cheaper materials and products and they just fall apart after five years. I think with the climate crisis clients are more aware of this and are more conscious and we’re more conscious in choosing these - Louise Grimes
