EbleLectureFlyer_Final.jpg

We have just learned that guest lecturer, Joachim Eble, is under physician’s care as a result of complications from a recent accident and is unable to travel to the U.S. Fortunately, he is expected to make a full recovery.

However, we regret that the Sustainable Communities Lecture on February 23 is being canceled.

GUEST LECTURER: JOACHIM EBLE, founder and director of Joachim Eble-Architektur, Tübingen, Germany

February 23, 2010 • 3:00–5:00 p.m.

Considered the “grandfather of green building” in Germany, Joachim Eble’s experience in sustainable, “healthy” design and eco-city projects features:

  • Climate-responsive strategies emphasizing energy and water efficiency and conservation
  • Eco-architecture and bio-climatic design
  • Efficient transportation and transit options
  • Healthy building materials and indoor and outdoor environments
  • Land use and planning strategies supporting high-density development
  • Human ecology, building biology and economic emphases in design and development
  • Urban agriculture and aquaculture activities
