Corentin Fivet is an Associate Professor at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), affiliated with the CE department. His research interests include sustainable construction, circular economy, reuse, structure-efficient design, computational methods for structural form-finding, and innovative construction processes. He is also involved in architect-engineer collaboration. Fivet teaches courses such as Building Design in the Circular Economy and Building Technology I, and he supervises PhD students. His work emphasizes sustainable and innovative approaches in construction and design.

Corentin Fivet is an architect and structural designer specializing in sustainable and circular construction practices. His research focuses on the reuse of building components, particularly concrete elements, to minimize environmental impact and promote resource efficiency. Fivet explores innovative design methodologies that integrate structural principles with circular economy concepts, emphasizing the reutilization of materials in new construction projects. His work includes the development of computational tools for stock-constrained structural design and the application of life cycle assessment to evaluate the environmental benefits of reusing existing materials. Fivet's research bridges architectural design and structural engineering, aiming to reduce embodied energy and material waste in the construction industry.
