Progressing Towards Regenerative Tall Buildings
Tall buildings should not be built with a mindset of relying on outside resources for functionality. Performance-based design must go beyond net zero energy and towards creating regenerative buildings that contribute to the resources of its community.
DLR Group Principal Kenneth Turner, AIA, will deliver a presentation that examines tall buildings’ electricity and water needs to make them fully self-sufficient. The questions and challenges with tall buildings reduction and regeneration of critical nutrients are not difficult to answer or understand when each component is analysed individually. In fact, current technology exists for almost each analysis and solution.
