Building More, But Building Better?

You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / Building More, But Building Better?
Published: June 7, 2026 by VPR Producer

What if the best building practices go against the urban norm? This week, we look at how architects and developers are rethinking modern construction through natural materials, healthier spaces and designs that account for their long-term impact on both people and the environment.


Guest:

  • Teresa Coady, architect, founding partner, former president, B+H Bunting Coady, author, Rebuilding Earth: Designing Eco-Conscious Habitats for Humans.

Through her work, Coady has looked closely at how modern construction is shaped by the economics behind it. In short, she says we often build around profit instead of long-term need.
