Speaker(s): Michael Leckman, Jeffrey Mitchell
Location: Sheraton Vancouver Wall Centre, 1000 Burrard St, Vancouver, BC V6Z 2R9
Date: May 18, 2024
Time: 12:00 pm

Join Principal Michael Leckman and Associate Jeffrey Mitchell at the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada (RAIC) Conference where they will be speaking about designing to decarbonize buildings.

On May 18, 2024 at 12:00pm PST they will explore three case studies on how building types inform the design strategies needed to successfully decarbonize a design. The first case study is a ZCB retrofit of a 1970’s municipal office in Brampton, ON); the second is a zero carbon LEED Gold classroom addition in Winnipeg, MB; the third is a zero carbon, net zero energy EMS station in Scarborough, ON.

Attendees will learn to recognize key energy consumers specific to a building type, how key energy consumers influence system choices and aesthetic decisions for that building type and how focusing on decarbonizing the building type can yield award winning design strategies.
