SUMMARY:CACC + AIA Charleston Lecture Series: B Sanborn
DESCRIPTION:Lunch at 12:00 pm\nLecture at 12:30 pm\nCEUs will only be given to AIA members attending in person. There will be a sign-in sheet at the door to receive credit\n\n\n\n\nResearching the Human Experience: Aligning Mixed-Methods Rigor with Industry Reality\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis talk explores how designers can leverage interdisciplinary and mixed-methods research in practice. Drawing on experience leading research at a large integrated design firm\, we’ll examine three essential approaches: data triangulation\, empirical observation\, and qualitative participatory methods. A key focus will be aligning rigorous research methods with the realities of industry—including client perspectives\, budget constraints\, and project timelines. Through case studies\, including co-creating measures of success and removing barriers to adoption for materials\, attendees will see how systematic research methods translate into actionable design insights. This session demonstrates how research becomes a strategic practice rather than a one-off project. \nB Sanborn \nB Sanborn specializes in helping organizations use research to transform ad-hoc decision-making into evidence-based design. Their methodology bridges anthropology\, environmental psychology\, and organizational behavior to reveal patterns in how teams collaborate\, how stakeholders engage with research\, and how evidence influences design decisions. Through their work at DLR Group and in industry research associations\, B helps practitioners build research thinking into their design process. B currently serves as Design Research Leader at DLR Group\, where they’ve spent eight years building the firm’s research program from a solo practice into a team of four\, establishing research strategy\, capability frameworks\, and ROI models for integrated design firms. They are also a Principal in the firm. B holds an MS in Environmental Psychology from Cornell University with a minor in Organizational Behavior and a BA in Archaeology and Physical Anthropology from CSU Sacramento. Their published research on coworking environments and workplace dynamics appears in the Journal of Corporate Real Estate and design theory handbooks. They serve as 2025-26 Board Chair of the Environmental Design Research Association\, sit on the Center for Health Design’s EDAC Advisory Council\, and contribute to the American Psychological Association’s Climate Change Task Force. B has studied theater and dance alongside their research career\, bringing elements of improv\, spatial dynamics\, and embodied listening to their work—informing a research philosophy based on negotiating shared movement within structure.

SUMMARY:AIA Charleston Hard Hat Tour
DESCRIPTION:Get ready to kick off the new year with a unique hard hat tour followed by a fun happy hour – it’s going to be a blast! \nDATE: Wednesday January 21\nTIME: 4:30 PM\nLOCATION: 71 George Street \nAIA Charleston will kick off 2026 on January 21 with a downtown hard hat tour followed by a happy hour nearby- we would love to see you at either one or both! \nHard Hat Tour: \n71 George Street \nThe College of Charleston Stern Student Center Renovation is a major transformation of a 76\,000-square-foot facility in downtown Charleston. The project involves stripping the building to its concrete structure\, reskinning the exterior\, and demolishing an old pool to create additional programmatic space. The renovation includes two new restaurants\, a dining area\, a two-story multipurpose room\, spaces for student government and organizations\, a fitness center\, and administrative offices. The design had to meet the strict requirements of the City of Charleston’s Board of Architectural Review\, navigate a tight budget\, and address complex existing conditions. Sustainability strategies aim to achieve Two Green Globes certification\, focusing on energy efficiency\, water conservation\, and the use of sustainable materials. This renovation will modernize the building while respecting Charleston’s historic aesthetic\, creating a vibrant and environmentally responsible hub for student activities. \nProject Size: 76\,000 SF \nProject Cost: $34M \nWe will meet at the site entrance at 4:30pm; street parking or parking garages are nearby. Closed-toe shoes\, hard hats\, and safety vests are required for all attendees; please bring your own as limited PPE will be available on site. \nThis event is open to AIA Members only and HSW Credit will be logged for all attendees. \nHappy Hour: After the hard hat tour\, we will meet nearby (Location TBD) for a happy hour at 5:30. We would love to see you even if you cannot make the hard hat tour!

SUMMARY:COTE SC Webinar: Getting to Net-Zero Energy Before the RFP
DESCRIPTION:COTE SC Carbon-Focused Webinar Series\n \nPart Two: Getting to Net-Zero Energy Before the RFP \nTuesday January 13\, 12-1 PM \nPresenters: Catalyst Partners \nFormat: Live One-hour lecture-based webinar accompanied by slides and Q&A \nCEUs: Yes\, 1 CEU/LU\n\nCourse Description: \nThe profession needs to advance high-performance in challenging markets and climate regions. The speaker describes the top five considerations that should be evaluated for every zero-net energy project during the pre-RFP process. Then\, the speaker explains how to set a meaningful energy target on a proposed project – which is critical to achieving zero-net energy. Finally\, the speaker identifies the crucial design decisions that make (or break) the potential for zero-net energy. The truth is that every energy model is WRONG to some degree – and yet they are essential to an integrative design process for high-performance project outcomes. In the spirit of the integrative process\, at key points during the session\, the audience will be prompted to participate in real-time performance modeling decision-making using cloud-based building energy modeling tools. In one specific example\, a seemingly “good” decision when considered in isolation will be shown to be detrimental to overall energy performance when considered in the context of the whole building using dynamic real-time tools. The audience will also be introduced to “next generation” energy modeling using genetic algorithms to achieve design optimization solutions and total carbon modeling\, which incorporates emerging processes and databases for assessing and optimizing embodied carbon intensity as part of a project lifecycle carbon assessment. \nLearning Objectives: \n\n     Explain the top five design considerations of ZNE that need to be considered before responding to a request for proposal (RFP).\n     Identify specific design questions that a project team needs the building energy modeling effort to answer as early as pre-design.\n     Determine the appropriate tools to ensure that energy performance and lifecycle carbon goals will be achieved on any project.\n     Prepare a framework to effectively integrate early-stage building energy modeling within any firm’s culture and design practice.\n\n
