"Buildings rot - it's a matter of fact rather than a matter of time." So German architectural practice karhard architektur + design developed a card game called "Mängelquartett" to teach how to read buildings and learn how to deal with common building and planning defects.
A properly maintained building can last hundreds of years; learn how to look for the signs. If you speak German. ::Mängelquartett via ::anArchitecture
