Join us behind the scenes during the 2017 GreenBuilt Home Tour where Nathan takes us behind the drywall to tour 2 all electric, solar and resilient homes built in the chicagoland region. The Evanston project will be the first in the area to achieve LEED certification, learn what they did and how you can to.
Lessons Learned
-Summarize the components measured LEED BD+C V4 Annual Energy Use and how it ties into the 2030 Commitment for homes.
-Identify some of the LEED BD+Cv4 Durability Management opportunities for keep homes dry and how that ties into an improved thermal envelope
-Articulate the benefits of battery backup and how they tie into LEED BD+C v4 Innovation Demand Response & Green Vehicles
-Know how to design out gas and take modern homes all electric without sacrificing comfort or efficiency

Instructor: Nathan Kipnis
Recognized as Chicago’s premier award winning sustainable architectural practice, Kipnis Architecture + Planning (KAP) was founded in 1993 and is based in Evanston, Illinois. KAP has practiced the architectural design philosophy of ‘High Design/Low Carbon™’ long before it was in vogue. We are guided by the idea that architectural design excellence need not be sacrificed for principles of sustainability. Rather, we believe sustainable design expands the possibilities for innovative architectural forms, construction methods and the use of materials. A particular expertise is the architectural integration of passive solar and bioclimatic design. We are early signatories to the AIA’s 2030 Commitment, rigorously working towards having our projects be ‘net zero’ for their energy use by 2030.
