An Australian building advisory service says building design needs to adapt to future climatic trends.
Ian Agnew is the Queensland Manager for Archicentre, an advisory service for the Australian Institute of Architects. He says it’s clear that flooding is going to be more regular in our region and that building design needs to reflect that.
He tells Phil Kafcaloudes that new designs should be cheap enough for developing countries to adopt as well.
