The Building Gap and Bad Habits by Paul Morrell

Paul Morrell, OBE, addresses critical challenges facing built environment professions, emphasizing the need for adaptability. He advocates for collaborative reforms in sector structure, education, policy, and accountability to enhance efficiency and societal value.

Many institutions, rooted in Victorian principles, struggle in today's world of technological shifts, blurring professional lines, and a discerning public. Morrell questions how they can update their past to remain relevant.

He highlights a critical "performance gap": buildings often fail to deliver on promises of health, well-being, and low-carbon impact, a systemic failure of the professions to address.
