Foresight
This is where we bring together expert insights, knowledge and foresight about shaping a more sustainable built environment. It is also the home of our podcast, Shaping Sustainable Places, where we speak with industry and civic leaders about the solutions and projects making a difference today.
Decarbonizing construction
The future of concrete
Concrete is the backbone of modern construction, shaping everything from bridges to buildings. But as widely used as it is, concrete production also comes with a hefty environmental cost, especially when it comes to CO2 emissions. In our latest podcast, "Getting Carbon Out of Concrete," we talk with industry leaders about the exciting innovations driving us toward a more sustainable future with this essential material.

Healthy places
Stepping up to a whole new level of sustainability
Can a building be both comfortable and efficient while significantly reducing environmental impact. Office buildings like our terraced Hyllie Terrass development near Malmö are proving the answer is yes.
Decarbonizing construction
On the road to more sustainable asphalt
Well-built roads keep society functioning, allowing us to travel across town – or across the nation. Unfortunately, the construction of asphalt roads has traditionally relied on fossil-fuel products and produced significant carbon emissions. Now, a new approach to producing asphalt is cutting its climate impact.
