About this Event

An immersive and comprehensive exploration into the intersection of the circular economy and the building sector within the scope of architectural practice.

The program consists of a half-day in-person summit led by industry partners and a global specialist, Eva Gladek, from Metabolic in the Netherlands, who is an international leader in circular economic practices. The keynote speaker will be Purva Chawla, an adjunct lecturer from SMU Lyle School of Engineering, whose career has focused on the profession of architecture and its role in advancing the circular economy. The program will be moderated by a North Carolina Architect, Donald Green, who has over a decade of work in this sector.

The course will traverse the multifaceted dimensions of sustainable building practices, initially with foundational knowledge of the global circular economy, progressively developing into topics such as eco-economics, regulatory compliance, waste management, innovative design strategies, and deployment of emergent technologies in the building deconstruction and material reuse sector.
