Sustainable Design: A Collaborative Approach

Roger Chang will present several case studies of projects where a collaborative approach was used to achieve innovative design solutions. This includes the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, GA, a set of buildings on the National Register of Historic Buildings, and a new performing arts center, and a new music facility at Oberlin College.

The use of ASHRAE Standard 90.1, the reference energy standard of the USGBC’s LEED rating system, will be discussed within the context of an integrated design process.
