Cover Story: Numerous professionals, scholars, and policymakers have stressed the need to shift the current linear model to a circular one through keeping the value of materials and components at their highest value while relying on renewable and regenerative sources. According to recent studies, applying the principles of Circular Economy promises to achieve higher levels of sustainability. Although this concept seems straightforward, translating circular thinking to the building level might be intricate. The proposed framework in this article mainly deals with three aspects: wise resource management, building design approaches, and digitalization of the building industry. In this sense, this study will provide a clearer understanding on how to implement Circular Economy principles in buildings. View this paper
