Integrated Design Workshop #3, “Practical Applications of Tools & Methods,” takes place Friday, July 30, 8 a.m. – 4 p.m. at Telluride’s Wilkinson Public Library Program Room, 100 W. Pacific Ave. The event is hosted by The New Community Coalition (TNCC), with support from the Governor’s Energy Office ENERGY STAR New Homes grant program. Guest presenters are James Pittman, a whole systems designer, consultant, and educator, and Eugene Wowk, architect and owner of Wowk Design, LLC.
“Practical Applications of Tools & Methods” targets anyone with a voice in the design phase of buildings, especially in high altitude (cold, dry climate) environments. Previous training is not required and “newbies” are welcome to attend. Architects, engineers, designers, general contractors, owners, interior designers, tradesmen, and building & planning department staff are encouraged to participate. Attendance at previous talks is not a prerequisite.
There will be a brief overview of integrated, whole systems design (for review and new learning), along with practical applications of integrated design in projects including: accurate estimates, efficiency construction scheduling, interior lighting efficiency, passive and mechanical HVAC systems, greenhouse gas emissions, building lifecycles, construction/renovation costs, sustainability value assessment, and other design opportunities.
