تعیین مشخص بازیافتی: درک معماران بریتانیا و شیوه ها و تجربه های طراحان

This paper introduces findings from the Recycling by Design Research Project (Phase I) (see note 11). The importance of developing new markets for recyclate in the UK is first established. Selected research findings are then presented from a questionnaire survey response obtained from 539 architects and 142 designers, and follow-up interviews conducted with 20 of those respondents. These findings identified that UK architects and designers do not currently specify recycled products and materials, and that there are a range of obstacles to their doing so. A concluding discussion briefly examines the UK Government’s current position on addressing such obstacles.
