The CO2-absorbing building made of old sinks, windscreens and toilets: Ghent’s £17m design museum is a green marvel
A new design museum in Ghent was built using reclaimed materials from the city, including waste-derived bricks, discarded windows, car windscreens, sinks, and toilets. Designed by London-based Carmody Groarke with local firms, the €20 million project highlights reuse and low-carbon construction.
