About Ed Melet
Ed Melet is Associate Professor of Circular Building in the Climate Resilient City research group.
Ed received his PhD from TU Delft in 2017 with Activerende Gevels (Activating Facades), a study on buildings that encourage behavioural change. Since then, he has led the Circular Building research line, first as a senior lecturer and now as an associate professor. Melet and his team are investigating how buildings and the built environment can be made more circular in order to reduce their environmental impact.
Before joining AUAS in 2002, Ed was a technology editor/researcher at trade magazine the Architect. He has also published in national and international journals, such as Bouwen met Staal, Cement, Business Innovation, Korean Architecture, Domus, Deutsche Bauzeitung, Dax, Renovatie & Restoratie and Detail in Architecture.
