Where is the short-term rental industry headed? Our founder & CEO Sean Breuner sat down with two other short-term rental (STR) experts, IMH CEO Piers Brown and Revedy CEO Colin Carvey, at the IMN Short Term Rental Summer Forum in Austin to discuss the transformation and future of the STR industry. Watch the video below to learn more about their take on: 👉 the divergence of STRs between investment-grade properties and mom-and-pop operations 👉 trends of consolidation and collaboration 👉 the importance of brand loyalty in this space, and much more!

We (I and Minus) are invited on the stage at New York Design Week / ICFF to talk about New economic models for sustainable design. For my own case this theme is an acknowledgement that for most commodities we’ll not reach a net zero society without new business models. The core is that all forms of carbon footprint are related to the use of natural resources, which increasingly faces global scarcity. The simple medicine is letting the material stay alive, through several product cycles, several decades, maybe centuries. And also: To limit the use of energy -> reuse before recycle. So, how do you know your material will be reused after a product life? Is it solved through the product design process? Or the design of business model? Or the design of value chains? Or everything? If we should meet in New York, send me a message:)

What’s a Boring Revolution and why does the planet need it? Better Worlds recently featured Indy Johar of Dark Matter Labs on the Green Planet Blue Planet podcast with Julian Guderley to understand Indy’s concept of a Boring Revolution. The dialogue explores the deeper paradigm shifts required for humanity to thrive sustainably. It is necessary to shift from construct that humans have a separate existence and dominion over all things to recognize that all things - objects and humans - are part of an entangled world where the systems function together to assure a thriving planet. https://lnkd.in/g3CjyHQq #systemsthinking #futurist #urbanplanning #sustainablearchitecture #sustainablecities #socialimpact #regenerativedesign #architecture

While there has always been groundbreaking, high-quality science happening in both Oxford and Cambridge, UK - the market has historically had a lack of quality real estate offerings for those requiring research & development. Our forthcoming projects in the UK, Trinity in Oxford and Vitrum in Cambridge, will deliver Class A, purpose-built life science spaces – setting a new standard of quality and intentional design the markets - and the science - need and deserve. Available to lease from: Trinity – Winter 2025 and Vitrum – Spring 2026

As 2023 comes to an end I think it is worth reflecting back on some of the highlights of our research projects like the Mutual Learning Visit from City&Co in Wrocław. It's been fantastic hosting you and making some steady progress. To more successes in 2024. https://lnkd.in/dyzgbqsu J van Hoof, Jolanta Perek-Bialas, Liesbeth de Wit, Willeke Van Staalduinen, Jeroen Dikken PhD, RN, Rengin Aslanoğlu, Milena Maj, Malgorzata Swiader, Grzegorz Chrobak, Szymon Szewrański #UPWr, Jagiellonian University, Scoala Nationala de Studii Politice si Administrative (SNSPA), #THUAS, AFEdemy, age-friendly environments academy VNG, #GEAC, NCN National Science Centre, Executive Agency for Higher Education, Research, Development and Innovation Funding - UEFISCDI Nationaal Regieorgaan Praktijkgericht Onderzoek SIA JPI Urban Europe European Commission #wroclaw #krakow #thehague , #bucuresti

realizing one's vision. by Peculiarly Positive Perspectives A blueprint is a detailed outline used in various fields and industries. It serves as a foundation or roadmap for projects or plans, providing guidance, structure, and clarity. In construction, architects and builders use blueprints to visualize and communicate design ideas. In business, blueprints can refer to strategic plans that outline goals, strategies, and tactics for growth. Similarly, individuals can use blueprints to set goals and chart a course of action for personal development. Studies show that having a well-defined blueprint increases the likelihood of success in endeavors. Overall, a blueprint is a valuable resource for achieving success and realizing one's vision. via YouTube https://lnkd.in/gpxm4Gj5

"If all of Europe's carbon budget, because all of Europe has signed up to the Paris Accord, was to look at its housing budgets, how much housing can it actually build? All of Europe can afford to build 144,000 homes 😱. Malmo's producing what? How much? 25,000? I don't know, whatever. Berlin, I think Germany's looking at half a million homes a year. All of Europe, 144,000 homes a year. The total demand is 1.45 million homes a year." - Indy Johar, mission steward at Dark Matter Labs Shouldn't we look at the future of the built environment in a radically different way?
