The architectural industry significantly impacts the environment due to the extensive use of natural resources and the generation of waste. Architects’ perceptions of upcycling are not fixed but fluid and adaptable, reflecting the unique blend of personal values, professional experience, and external influences. This diversity in perspective contributes to the richness and variety of architectural designs. This research paper explores architects’ perceptions of the innovative incorporation of upcycling in architecture, addressing a wide range of key parameters that influence their design decisions.
