Building for the 21st Century
Lectures on Sustainable Design and Energy-Efficient Building Technologies The National Building Museum is a preeminent venue for the presentation of topics that address sustainable design and energy-efficient building technologies and construction techniques. Through its ongoing lecture series, Building for the 21st Century, the exhibition Big & Green: Toward Sustainable Architecture in the 21st Century, and the complementary Big & Green lecture series, the Museum has increased the public’s awareness of the need for environmentally sensitive design. The Building for the 21st Century lecture series offers free noontime lectures, eight or nine times a year. Leading speakers from around the country discuss new technologies and construction techniques that are both energy-efficient and economical. Audio files of all lectures in the series are available on this web site, as are illustrated summaries of selected lectures. Sponsors
