Edmonton Design Exposed: Lecture

Starts: Thursday, October 14 7:00 PM

Ends: Thursday, October 14 8:30 PM

On the opening day of EDE (Edmonton Design Exposed), M.A.D.E. in Edmonton's 10th anniversary celebration, Dan Rockhill will give a brief overview of the origins of a modern vernacular from the work of Rockhill and Associates. Their work is tightly bound to the natural milieu and culture of the Kansas region. In the spirit of regionalism, the area's archetypal forms, Spartan aesthetics, frugal methods, and relationship to nature permeate the results. He will explain the importance building has in architectural education and why he feels "having their hands in the concrete" is critical in the development of young professionals. Dan will also share their work on LEED and Passive House Certified homes in Kansas City, and enabling homes to reduce their carbon footprint and maintain a pleasant living environment.
