House of Cards- Paper as a Building Material | Jerzy Latka | TEDxAUBG

In the contemporary world we face new and ever changing challenges, among them sustainable development to prevent harm and preserve earth’s resources for future generations. In his talk, Jerzy approaches this challenge with a new generation of building materials and structural systems, which take into account eco-friendliness, ease of production, low-cost and potential for reusing, recycling or resetting after the life-cycle. Jerzy Latka is an architect, designer and researcher working at the Faculty of Architecture Wroclaw University of Science and Technology in Poland and in the research and design platform for paper in architecture ‘ARCHI-TEKTURA.eu’. He conducted his research and gained his experiences in several countries such as Poland, Romania, the United Kingdom, Japan, the Netherlands and Israel. In his professional and academic works he focuses on the use of paper as a building material for contemporary design and architecture. In 2017, Jerzy was named as one of MIT’s 35 Innovators Under 35 for his “House of Cards,” a sturdy paper composite structure that could be erected quickly after natural disasters of displacement. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
