"Sustainable design in practice"
Kamil Domachowski - IFAgroup
How can a building be harmoniously integrated into its spatial and environmental context? How can the principles of sustainable architecture be responsibly implemented?
These are the questions that will be the focus of Kamil Domachowski's presentation.
Specific projects will be discussed, with particular emphasis on maintaining a balance between modern solutions and respect for the local surroundings.
The presentation will showcase working methods that enable the creation of architecture that respects the natural and cultural conditions of a site.
Participants will learn how an approach based on models and context analysis allows for the effective realization of sustainable projects.
The challenges associated with adapting existing buildings and designing in diverse urban environments will also be addressed.
