Listen to Belinda Strickland (Professional Development and Policy Coordinator for the AIA) and Noy Hildebrand (Sustainable Design Consultant and Architect) discuss the ever growing topic of Environmentally Sustainable Design (ESD) and how an architect’s designs can incorporate ESD.
This talk will provide an insightful overview of buildings and energy covering current, as well as the proposed building code requirements. Recent study findings will be discussed alongside available guidance material. A brief overview of shading masks and natural ventilation will keep you up to date with new techniques and materials needed for sustainable design. This is the perfect opportunity to grow your knowledge in ESD.
