Day 13 of the Dezeen 15 virtual festival included a video interview with curator and architect Joseph Grima, who advocated for "a new spirit in design" that conserves the Earth's resources.
"In the face of clear and present danger, we have no choice but to rethink the predatory principles (towards habitat, towards each other) that modern industrial economies are optimised towards," Grima writes in his manifesto.
"Non-Extractive Architecture is a form of architectural practice which considers the full chain of building's consequences, taking all possible externalities into consideration."
Grima believes that creating non-exploitative architecture could help humanity overcome the evolutionary crisis it currently faces.
