Friday, September 28th

6:30-8:30 p.m. 

Drinks and Snacks Provided

Austin Center for Architecture - 801 W 12th St.

Join the Committee On The Environment (COTE) and Passive House Austin (PHAUS) for a Happy Hour with local material representatives.

"Though sustainability rating programs such as the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC)'s LEED have contributed fundamental knowledge on environmentally responsible material approaches in the AEC industry, future material strategies in green building demand a more significant effort to achieve measurable benefits. Next-generation material approaches must increasingly address material effects both within and beyond an architectural project. Significant improvements are possible at the intersections of traditional sustainable design-where materials meet energy, site design, and environmental equality." 

COTE and PHAUS support local material and product reps that are making an effort to instigate change in the Building/Construction market in Austin. Want to know more about what they're doing? Please join us for a night of conversation about all things related to sustainability with these change agents! Attendees include:

• Fireclay Tile
