CAE Fall Conference: Redefining Sustainability: New Directions for Designing Our Future
Join the Committee of Architect in Education for their fall meeting September 16-18, in Seattle, Seattle, as the group explores modernization of schools built in the ‘50s and ‘60s as well as new school construction—all in the light of sustainable design. Experts will present current practices and projects demonstrating leading-edge design of sustainable learning environments. Seattle is the only area in the United States where five projects have received an AIA Committee on the Environment (COTE) Top Ten Green Projects Award, and the group will tour four of these as well as three other LEED-certified projects. Visit the CAE Web site for more information or to sign up. (Pictured is Seattle’s Benjamin Franklin Elementary School by Mahlum Associates, a 2006 COTE Top Ten Green Projects recipient and one of the conference’s tour sites.)
