project of the month

Join us for our October Project of the Month featuring Greg Esparza, co-founder of Austin based Moontower, as he shares the journey of designing and building the groundbreaking Cross Cabin project. Cross Cabin is a pioneering example of how prioritizing climate considerations can transform home design. Constructed entirely from plant-based materials like cross-laminated timber and thermally modified cork, this experimental structure not only achieves zero carbon emissions but also challenges traditional architectural norms. Attendees will explore innovative materials that eliminate concrete, gypsum wallboard, and petroleum-based insulation, offering a fresh perspective on sustainable building practices.

With over 15 years of industry experience, Greg will delve into the research and development process behind Cross Cabin and the materials used in its construction. This event is a unique opportunity for architects and builders to learn about high-performance materials, passive house principles, and zero carbon construction, ultimately paving the way for a more sustainable future in the built environment.

This free presentation will take place on Wednesday, October 9th at 9am PT / 12pm ET and will be followed by a lively Q+A session. Don't miss this opportunity to learn from an industry leader and engage with the PHA community. See you there!
