The Building Process as Infrastructure

Every building is tied to a series of infrastructure systems through government, wires, cables, energy, and humans. In this session an architect examines the "meta-infrastructure" that buildings nestle into. We are in a new era that deserves new thinking in planning, zoning, codes, energy, occupancy, and resiliency. This talk examines the form and nature of what we want to achieve with thoughts on the form and nature of the infrastructure that can deliver it.
