Finding Clarity
Advancing technology has driven the need for new materials in design. This course introduces and compares translucent materials through lab testing and real-world applications. Participants will understand various performance properties such as fire safety, weather-ability, energy efficiency and durability to make informed decisions on the environmental and human impact of these materials.

Trace it Back: A Course in Transparency
Every product has a story; where it comes from, how it gets to you, and where it goes after. This course offers an overview of reading and using product declarations and sustainability certifications, provides insight into how these relate to socially and environmentally responsible manufacturing and allows architects and designers to match data from products to their own values and project goals.

Designing Rooms for Acoustics
The sound of our environment affects our well-being, our productivity, and our health. This course will review the origins of acoustic design and define the language used to describe sound and how it’s measured. Participants will have a better understanding of NRC ratings and how to utilize various, even non-acoustic materials, to improve the quality of a space.

Capturing Light: An Introduction to Lighting Resins
Capture creativity in color using one of the most fundamental elements; light. Understand the principles of effective lighting design and how resins can contribute to the overall sustainability of a project. Learn specific techniques to overcome inherent problems when illuminating resins.

The Possibilities of Acoustics
When you think of acoustics in the built environment, you may think of something precise, like a sound rating or mathematical equation or acoustic test report. Or perhaps you think of acoustical products that help create soft, sound absorbing surfaces. You probably don’t think of the word blurry. In this course, we’ll dive into the “blurry” –or gray area—of acoustics. Our guest is an expert in acoustic architecture who will open our minds to the possibilities of acoustics and take us on a journey with sound that will spark new thinking about acoustics.

Designing for Exteriors
Color, form and texture in exterior applications can be taken to a whole new level when using translucent materials. Compare three materials through testing methodologies which meet high-performance criteria, avoid pitfalls of UV rays on color selection, and evaluate high-design projects where lighter weight and durable building materials provide an advantage.
