Better Building Banter: SUSTAINABLE BUILDING

Come join Southern Lakes Better Building for our first Better Building Banter session of year! Taking place at the Architecture + Design Library (AD Library) we'll hear from a panel of experts covering the importance of sustainable materials in a build.

Shana Payne of Designgroup Stapleton Elliott (DGSE) will cover circular economy flows and positive ways of sustainable implementations and examples. We'll then hear from Managing Director and founder of LMA Timber, Martin Thompson, on real life local examples of positive sustainable material choices in building. Hamish McPhail of Salmond Architecture will finish off by comparing different build designs showing the benefit of using sustainable materials.

After the presentations, we'll hear an open discussion between our panelists before opening up the floor for Q&A.

Don't forget that our Banter sessions are for positive networking as well! Doors open at 5pm for half an hour of connecting with industry and community and another half hour at the end for everyone to come together and discuss the event with those in the room.

This event is part of the broader Building in Change series happening across the Otago region during the same week. They aim to address sustainable building practices and construction and demolition waste in collaboration with Otago’s District Councils.

Thanks to AD Library for sponsoring and hosting this event and QLDC's Zero Waste District Programme for its support.
