SES-755 Greening Existing Building

2 Credits

Taught by a practicing architect, this course is based upon the growing need to understand the details and reasoning behind rehabbing the existing building stock, and how to address "green" design within the content of renovation at several scales and scopes. The course of study will be paired with a cutting edge computer design tool, Seifara, developed to help designers incorporate sustainable approaches and explore deep synergistic outcomes at the early conceptual stage of design.
