How to Minimize Upfront Carbon and Make a Real Difference
2022-10-12 12:00 - 13:00
Our need for holistic climate action is more urgent than ever. In the built environment we must maximize energy efficiency while also minimizing upfront carbon. In other words, when we increase the efficiency of a building we need to do it with low upfront carbon (or net carbon storing) materials. We no longer have time for carbon payback periods. Luckily there are now effective tools to accurately estimate upfront embodied carbon. This presentation will cover two of the new tools available: EC3 and BEAM. Since our focus will mostly be on residential and small multifamily scale we will mostly focus on the BEAM tool.We will also dive into the incredibly cool side effects of low carbon construction. These can include optimized health, comfort, durability, efficiency, and social justice. We will provide some case studies along with examples of materials we’ve used to help meet these aggressive yet necessary goals.

Brooks +Scarpa: Dense City - Housing for Quality of Life and Social Change
2022-10-21 17:00 - 19:30
Low-Income affordable housing used to mean fortress-like structures that were soulless and cheaply built. Today, there is a growing interest amongst architects that have spawned new and innovative approaches to affordable housing that are well-designed and incorporate a combination of creative social programming, cutting-edge forms and materials, sustainable design and a keen sense of aesthetic. This seminar will explore new models that have transformed affordable and low-income housing into cutting edge architecture.
This seminar will explore, discuss and show example and discuss how new models and current trends in affordable and low-income housing design have produced innovative and cutting-edge designs and how they have improved our cities and communities. We will discuss and show examples of extraordinary low-income and affordable housing projects and discuss their relevance to good community, neighborhood and urban design today. The seminar will also demonstrate how hi-design affordable housing architecture can help create more equitable societies.
