Join Mithun principal Hilary Noll for “High-Performance Affordable Housing at Four Scales” to explore the intersection of social equity, climate resilience and technical rigor through the lens of mission-driven, integrated design. By analyzing affordable housing across four distinct scales — the building system, the site, the neighborhood and the regional ecology — Hilary will demonstrate how architects can deliver restorative environments for historically underserved communities. Drawing on award-winning projects and research into regenerative design, the presentation highlights strategies for decarbonization and electrification, such as those utilized in pioneering all-electric modular housing. Attendees will discover how to bridge the gap between high-performance building metrics and human wellbeing, creating place-based solutions that enhance both urban ecology and the user experience.
