As record-breaking temperatures sweep across European cities, practitioners have recognized that existing infrastructure is poorly equipped to address the impacts of climate change.
Roofscapes, a startup emerging from the MIT School of Architecture and Planning, has developed innovative solutions to amplify urban climate resilience, focusing on strategic adaptation of underutilized spaces.
Their approach to tackling climate change through urban greening, particularly using green rooftops, demonstrates an effort to transform dense urban areas into resilient, adaptable environments.
Founded in 2020 by MIT graduate students and incubated at the DesignX accelerator, Roofscapes aims to align architectural innovation with societal and environmental values.
