PSR_int_Index-25

As part of our report into how architects approach product specification, we interviewed Cullinan Studio partner Colin Rice, for whom circular economy principles are a key interest

A sustainable philosophy of connecting people and nature has always been at the heart of Cullinan Studio’s work and is exemplified in projects like the recent Bunhill 2 Energy Centre in north London, which is reusing waste heat from London Underground tunnels to warm homes and other buildings.

When it comes to specification, partner Colin Rice says the practice has recently changed the way it works, bringing in some outside consultancy support on specification-writing to sit alongside its use of the NBS Chorus tool. The move is designed to help give a more co-ordinated approach, partly to enable better integration with Revit, for BIM.
