Dennis Wilde - Gerding Edlen, Ralph DiNola - Green Building Services, Gene Sandoval and Dave Gonrowski - ZGF will conduct a panel discussion about the current state of sustainable design in regional, national and international Architecture. This will be a lively discussion to consider the impact of the exterior enclosure on the complete building including day lighting, thermal implications, air quality, ventilation, constructability and marketability.
Gerding Eden continues to be at the forefront of bringing sustainable buildings to the Northwest. They will give their perspective on the commitment it takes to lead, the lessons learned along the way and the impediments to doing more.
