Our current legislation is already aiming at a clean, circular society and the development of buildings. For example, according to the Building Decree, increasingly strict standards must be met with regard to the impact of material use and energy performance. Although these types of technical assessment instruments have an important use in themselves, they do not inspire enough. In our experience, the focus on meeting certain standards can, strangely enough, even blind people to making bigger connections that really matter. With GRASP we want to change this by taking governments, planners and future residents along in a meaningful, self-recouping quest for balance and restoration of the environment, landscape and social connection.
