Event presented by Reimagine Buildings Collective
Tuesday, August 4th from 12pm-1pm eastern (Virtual)
Mike Fowler has been a driving force behind policy progress in Washington, helping push passive house principles into code. And increasingly, his focus has turned to a harder question: what does it actually mean to design for climate resilience, not just efficiency, but when the grid goes down and a heat dome settles in?
The Summer Sessions continue with Mike in conversation with interviewer Michael Ingui on the challenges of passive survivability and climate-resilient design at the frontier of practice, followed by open discussion with RBC members.
90 minutes. Three challenges. Three solutions. Come with questions.
