Join us Thursday morning September 2, from 10:30 – 11:00 a.m. on the Smart Stage for our Technology Designer presentation:
The Performance Home. Where technology meets design™
For architects and designers, technology impacts design decisions across the entirety of the modern performance home. From wellness to living in place, from acoustics to clean air, to lighting, window treatments and indoor/outdoor living, our panel will discuss the collaboration process. Homeowners are asking for these technologies and only proper infrastructure and planning will assure success.
