Facade Tectonics Forum: NYC

May 11, 2022

• Event by Facade Tectonics Institute
• AIA CES : 4 AIA (HSW) and PDH credits

The topic of the Forum is Carbon Crisis: Leveraging the Façade System for Carbon Reduction in Buildings

Buildings are a significant contributor to global carbon emissions and their façade systems play a major role in that contribution. This puts the building skin at center stage in the development and execution of carbon reduction strategies in the pursuit of carbon-neutral, or even carbon negative, buildings. Join us to explore practical and effective solutions for reducing carbon emissions along with the economic and ethical reasons for doing so.

Exhibitors are welcome to contact Raditia Lasry.
