The AIA Housing and Community Development Knowledge Community (HCD) is a network of architects and allied stakeholders that promotes equity in housing, excellence in residential design, and sustainable, vibrant communities for all, through education, research, awards, and advocacy.
When architects innovate they have a responsibility to “Prove their Point.” On the April 2, 2012 webinar, Wasserman and Connolly demonstrate the innovative and sustainable building practices of historic residential architecture found in the homes they researched for their book Wisconsin’s Own: Twenty Remarkable Homes. They explain how one particular sustainable strategy: the Vent Chimney was researched and adapted to new projects.
