To some people, modern and contemporary architecture are the same thing. However, modern architecture was inspired by an art movement known as modernism and lasted until around 1960. Contemporary architecture incorporates architecture past the 1960s and leading up to today. In short, contemporary architecture is reflective of styles in this current moment, which happen to be very diverse.

Baghdad was a wonder of the world in the year 800 while London was an economic backwater. By 1800, London was the largest city in the world while Arab cities languished. Recent research attributes this ‘trading places’ to institutional differences: Arab cities were tied to the fate of the state while European cities were independent growth poles.
Why did the Industrial Revolution begin in northwestern Europe? At the turning of the first millennium, Europe was a backward part of the world economy with low levels of urbanisation and income. But between 1000 and 1800, Europe surged from a backwater of the world economy to its most dynamic region. Understanding this development is a major challenge for economists and economic historians.

Wood is a renewable, natural, carbon-storing material indigenous to many building cultures, widely utilised as a building resource. It is also the world’s most successful fiber composite, in terms of its high-strength and low-cost. Wood’s sensual qualities, its tectonic potential and longevity are closely connected to its high social value and cultural resilience. We are experiencing a real “wood architecture revival”, with increased roles for wood at all scales, from largescale structures to interior finishes, mainly as a result of wood’s capacity for contributing to climate change mitigation through carbon sequestering. This has kick started a wealth of interest from architects and politicians looking to find ways to develop carbon free futures.

The exact origin of architecture could be said to date to the Neolithic period, around 10 000 BC, or simply when people stopped living in caves and started handling the way they want their houses to look and feel like.

Now more than ever, architecture is in need of innovation. The pandemic has made us fundamentally rethink the functioning of our cities, public spaces, buildings, and homes. Meanwhile, the recent Black Lives Matter and racial justice protests have us questioning architecture’s complicity in broader socioeconomic issues. These challenges are pressing, and we cannot put off changing architecture any longer.

The wellness industry is undergoing a $1.5 trillion boom, fuelled by consumers prioritising their health and wellbeing and looking for better sleep, better nutrition, better fitness, better appearance and better mindfulness. Designing for wellness interiors involves understanding how people want to feel, physically and psychologically, and the paradox of creating a private, personal space that will serve the public.

What Are Green Building Materials?

Green building materials, also called eco-friendly materials, are building construction materials that have a low impact on the environment. They are composed of renewable resources rather than non-renewable resources. These have to be natural and will not spoil by the heat, humidity, or cold.
