15 Minutes of Brilliance
Transformative Solutions for the Next Generation
We are surrounded by brilliance each day, but most have no platform in which
to share it with a wider audience. Living Future 07 is now part of this solution.
Four presenters share their big ideas!
Living Future Competition
Competition winners will be announced on April 27, during the Cascadia Big Bang Celebration.
The AIA Seattle Committee on the Environment, along
with the Cascadia Region Green Building Council issued a challenge to
award teams whose entries reflect true sustainability as measured by
the definition of the Living Building Challenge. The submitted projects
will be used as a platform to stimulate the jury led discussion
regarding the innovative approaches either pioneered or brought to a
new level with the 2007 competition entries.
