What Makes a Sustainable building
By Craig White (White Design).
See Poster for more info & RSVP
Limited Availability.
We are used to hearing about the need for sustainable buildings; all new buildings must be “Zero Carbon” by 2019. However, we also hear about “Low Energy” buildings, “Low Carbon” buildings, and some people may even have heard about “Passivhaus”. In this talk, Craig White will explain the distinctions between these labels and guide us through the process of designing a sustainable building from scratch. He will also touch on the contested issue of how “sustainability” should be assessed. Craig’s talk will be illustrated with images of his projects throughout the country.
