A Discussion of the Living Building Challenge 

Our Senior Project Manager, Matt Root started listening to the Green Architects’ lounge in 2011 during a long commute. Not knowing Phil or Chris at the time, he was skeptical of architects pitching sustainability.  However, in listening to the conversation, it quickly became apparent that these guys knew their stuff.

Recently, our team of researchers and consultants at IES has had the great pleasure of supporting Kaplan Thompson Architects and Briburn Architects for the Ecology School project in Sacco, Maine. We were happy to listen in to their latest podcast which was, as always, educational and fun. Check out the episode here with the Green Architects’ Lounge, as Phil and Chris discuss the certification program that aims to transform the marketplace, The Living Building Challenge.
