Healthy Materials Happy Hour

Doing the research required to understand the human health impacts with building material decisions can be daunting, but the Healthy Materials Lab is here to help. Leila Behjat, the Director of Material Ecology with the Healthy Materials Lab, will be sharing a short presentation providing actionable information about how to design healthier spaces through informed material selection. A Q&A will follow the presentation with Leila, Price Latimer, co-founder of Alkemis Paint, and Greg Esparza with Cross Cabin Supply will follow Leila’s presentation. Drinks & light snacks will be provided.
