Building Voices Symposium organized by the University of Hawaii at Manoa School of Architecture casts a wide net over ecologically focused design from around the globe. Miller Hull Partner Brian Court is invited to share from his design experience with the Bullitt Center and the new Living Building at Georgia Tech.
Community leaders, government officials, students, faculty members, and designers gather to discuss the most pressing issues and opportunities for the future, to evaluate current models of practice and to shape aspirations for the challenges ahead, with ideas shared on Earth Day, April 22, 2017 in Hawaii’s State Capitol.
