An architect explains why we should rethink how we build homes

Discussion on the considerations and evolution of emerging building approaches and materials in the X-Frame.

Excerpt: "Ged Finch, a Ph.D. candidate in the School of Architecture at New Zealand's Victoria University of Wellington, is on a mission to bring that future closer with his game-changing design, "X-Frame".

"X-Frame is a self-braced interlocking system made of wood that clips together to eliminate the need for single-use fixings. With the goal of creating a building in which all sections can be easily disassembled and reused, X-Frame has the potential to eliminate waste and minimize the number of raw materials required by the construction industry.
