Construction has traditionally followed a linear model in which materials are extracted, used, and eventually discarded. The concept of circular economy in construction looks at how resources can remain useful for longer through reuse, repair, refurbishment, recycling, and more thoughtful design. This requires consideration of material choices and building processes from an earlier stage. A circular approach can reduce unnecessary resource consumption while creating opportunities for more efficient project planning.
