33/3 (2024) will be published in Dezember 2024 with the Special topic
“The material transition in architecture and construction: Social, economic, spatial and cultural implications and appropriation processes”
This TATuP Special topic is intended to contribute to interdisciplinary, problem-oriented research on the shift toward bio- and earth-based building materials considering the related socio-technical, economic, political, ecological, and regulatory adaptation and adoption processes. It aims to examine the research and use of sustainable building materials from an integrative perspective, emphasizing the associated visions of the future, implementation opportunities and obstacles, conditions of use and acceptability, as well as the requirements of integration into the planning phases in architecture and construction.
The manifold implications of such a change in materials on the construction sector and society as a whole are only just beginning to be explored. Special topic editors are:
