Welcome to the February 2021 edition of RECAP! Before we get going we’d like to thank you for all your emails and feedback on our new look newsletter - they are much appreciated. Please keep them coming!

In this month’s edition we take a look at the recent resurgence in a new model for urban planning in the French capital. We see how a Scottish social housing scheme has challenged the perception that the Passivhaus Standard cannot be a cost effective solution to building, and after our feature of the Toronto Tree Tower in last month’s edition, we bring you Sabrina Sayed’s essay Outrage: the false promises of floating gardens..and much, much more. We hope you enjoy it!

RECAP is our monthly newsletter which showcases a selection of architecture and design projects from across Europe and beyond, with a focus on sustainability, innovation and socially responsible design principles that show a greater respect for human scale, biodiversity and the environment.
