Event Description

Through engaging lectures, case studies, hands-on demos, and design challenges, you’ll learn the core principles behind high-performance home design.

The goal: to help you design a sustainable, comfortable home aligned with your values and with the forces of physics and nature. In the studio, you’ll put theory into practice on a project of your choice.

Whether you're a designer, builder, project manager, property owner, or aspiring professional, a solid grasp of building science and a pathway to net-zero is quickly becoming essential for anyone shaping the built environment.
