As global cities confront unprecedented environmental and spatial strains, circularity has emerged as a fundamental imperative rather than an alternative design choice. This volume compiles leading research and practical frameworks dedicated to integrating circular principles within the built environment. True circular economy implementation requires dismantling the traditional “take-make-waste” model in favor of adaptive reuse, life-cycle upcycling, and regenerative blue-green infrastructure. The documented methodologies establish a comprehensive baseline for architects, urban planners, and policymakers, offering actionable insights to transform vulnerable urban systems into resilient, open-source models of sustainable development.
