From Insight to Impact: Technical Tools for Climate-Resilient Design

Thursday, October 30
11:45-12:45
How can early climate risk analysis shape smarter, more resilient architecture? Mike Williams (ClimateFirst) and Michelle Xuereb (BDP Quadrangle) will explore how integrated design strategies can elevate low-carbon goals while anticipating extreme weather and environmental uncertainty. Anchoring the talk is 80 Atlantic, a Toronto project where an early “climate opportunities charrette” informed key design moves — and where adaptation continues in real time as conditions evolve. The interactive session showcases emerging resilience strategies, offering practical inspiration for designing with climate uncertainty in mind.
