Professor Leonie Barner, serving as the Principal Research Fellow at Queensland University of Technology, and Dr. Kavita Gonsalves, the Sustainability Design Lead at Populous, have come together on the Think.Future podcast to narrate their collaborative journey concerning Building 4.0 CRC and the CommBank Stadium in Parramatta, NSW, Australia. The discussion revolves around the Populous-designed stadium, a LEED Gold-certified structure boasting a seating capacity of 30,000, which stands as a striking example of circular architecture. Circular design, stemming from the principles of the Circular Economy, is highlighted as an ethos striving to maintain building materials in constant circulation to minimize waste, pollution, and uphold biodiversity (per the Ellen Macarthur Foundation). Tune in to unravel the innovative essence of the CommBank Stadium and the valuable circular design insights shaping the future of architecture and design landscapes.
