The 2025 edition of Practices in Research brought together a diverse group of architects, researchers, and educators whose work confronts the complexities of circularity and working with the as found. Under the theme Re-mediating Practices, the conference explored how circularity influences not only materials and construction processes, but also the instruments, cultures, and epistemologies of architectural practice1 . Across the presentations, it became evident that circularity and practices of adaptive reuse are not merely a technical frontier—they are inevitably reshaping the nature of architectural practice. What follows is a reflection on the key themes that emerged from the concluding panel: uncertainty, archiving, collaboration, pedagogy and scalability. Collectively, they sketch, a picture of a profession in transition, and negotiating new modes of working at the crossroads of environmental responsibility and cultural imagination.
