Experience Architecture: Celebrating Sacramento’s Living Certified Projects

October 7, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

Sacramento is leading the way with the Living Building Challenge!

Did you know that Sacramento’s Arch Nexus office building is both the first Living Certified re-use project in the world, and the first Living Certified project in California? Or that the City of Sacramento is the first city in the world to achieve a Living Community Challenge Vision Plan for the new Sacramento Valley Station’s intermodel transportation hub? Sacramento is leading the way!

Attend this panel discussion to learn more about these two incredible groundbreaking projects and about the aspirational Living Building Challenge, a program that sets bold, yet achievable, goals that provide impactful and much-needed outcomes for our environment and the climate.

Panelists include Greg Taylor, AIA, Sacramento Valley Station Project Manager and Bruce Monighan, AIA Urban Design Manager, with the City of Sacramento; Patty Karapinar, AIA LEED-AP BD+C, WELL-AP and Brian Cassil of Arch Nexus.

Experience Architecture is a public-outreach event designed to facilitate greater transparency with the public in how architects create our built environment and how it impacts their daily lives; to create an ongoing dialogue to inform a distinct, regional, architectural identity; and to highlight existing relationships between the region and its architecture. The 2021 festival runs October 1-10th, celebrating 10 years over 10 days with 10 events.
