As the relevance of energy transition grows at the EU level, environmentally sustainable architecture plays a key role in reducing carbon emissions from buildings and increasing awareness about sustainability. Innovations in the architecture field are not only about creating visually appealing but also community-centred environments for their users. Can architectural design serve as a catalyst for raising awareness about energy transition? Can new designs and tools be envisioned to create spaces according to the three NEB principles: beautiful, sustainable, and together?
We will use these questions as a kick-start point for discussion at the event ‘Architects as facilitators of the energy transition: insights on two Plus Energy Buildings in Oslo’ on 18 October in Oslo (Norway). The event is hosted by Oslobygg, NTNU and the Architects’ Council of Europe within the EU-funded project ARV and the collaboration of the EU-funded Cultural-E project.
Join our awareness-raising event in Oslo to discover a wide range of replicable solutions for designing Plus Energy Buildings. Our keynote speakers will be the architects Erik Brett Jacobsen (SPINN and KONTUR Arkitekter) and Marit Reisegg Myklestad (Østengen & Bergo AS) for the ARV project, and Evy Ann Buverud (SØR arkitekter AS) for the Cultural-E project.
