Mass Timber Construction Podcast
Gear up for an architectural adventure! This episode of the Mass Timber Construction Podcast is set to redefine your understanding of sustainable construction. I'm your host, Paul Kramer, and today we're zeroing in on Canberra's $150 million carbon-neutral office development, a striking testament to eco-conscious building. Learn how this marvel from Down Under is championing sustainability with features like rooftop solar, no gas, and a hybrid timber construction system fueling 100% electric renewable operation.
But that's not all! We're also hopping over to the US to examine 'the Edison', an ambitious high-rise apartment building set for 2024 construction in downtown Milwaukee. Get behind-the-scenes insight into its preparation for review. We'll also spotlight the Built by Nature global prize, a path-breaking initiative promoting bio-based construction materials. This landmark endeavor is set to revolutionize the industry with a whopping £500,000 prize to boost innovation. And we'll wrap up our journey with an update from Brisbane, where a massive 45,000 square meter mixed-use building in the city's midtown is set to be revitalized.
