On 14 November, Jasmin Dieterle-Proesel, senior project manager at MVRDV, will participate in the Lab Talk ‘Building Circular – From Ambition to Reality’ at Aedes Berlin, organised in collaboration with Pretty Plastic as part of LOOPTOPIA Festival.

In this Lab Talk, Jasmin together with Peter van Assche (founder of Pretty Plastic) and Roy Pype (Founder of Proof of Sum) will explore what it takes to make circular construction happen in practice. Through their different perspectives and experiences, they will discuss how innovative materials can find their way into real building projects, what opportunities and challenges emerge along the way, and how collaboration with designers, material developers and other stakeholders can help turn circular ambitions into tangible results.

In her presentation, Jasmin will focus on MVRDV’s project MONACO in Munich’s Werksviertel, showcasing how its façade combines approx. 60,000 m² reclaimed clinker bricks, alongside almost 12,000 m² recycled plastic shingles made from discarded PVC building materials.
