In the face of climate change and escalating environmental challenges, the fields of architecture, design, and construction are at a crucial turning point — they must evolve. The exhibition “Materials Ready for the Future” proves that this transformation is not only necessary but entirely possible. It showcases a new design philosophy in which materials go beyond simply reducing harm — they have the potential to actively restore balance to our environment.
The construction industry has an enormous impact on the planet, accounting for around 40% of global greenhouse gas emissions. A significant share of these comes from embodied emissions — those generated during the production of materials such as cement, steel, and aluminum. These conventional materials not only deplete natural resources but often contain toxic substances; for instance, many widely used acrylic paints include heavy metals or volatile compounds that can negatively affect human health.
That is why conscious material selection is so vital — both for the well-being of people and the planet. “Materials Ready for the Future” presents real, ready-to-implement solutions that prove a different way of building is possible. The exhibition encourages architects, designers, and decision-makers to take action — to create spaces that are healthy, regenerative, and truly built with the future in mind.
