Living Buildings must meet rigorous performance standards for net-positive energy and water, and for healthy, regionally appropriate, and sustainably harvested and manufactured materials. Meeting these standards has far-reaching positive impacts on our buildings, our communities, and the environment. It also has impacts on the design and construction process we follow. In this session you will hear lessons learned and tips for success in achieving the three most challenging Petals from veteran users of the Living Building Challenge. Learn how they approached these Petals, what obstacles and opportunities they encountered, and what strategies led to success.
