Discuss how the projects presented have used local, natural materials as a means of connecting to their sites and providing the houses with a strong sense of craft.
For each project, describe the designer’s approach to detailing the intersections of various materials and connections between structural and architectural elements.
Explain how each house has been sited and configured to optimize daylighting and ventilation and to capture views.
Discuss how the projects presented have reinterpreted vernacular and modern typologies.

Architectural Record’s annual Houses issue has been the premier showcase for residential architecture for decades, each year reflecting the best in inventive contemporary design. For the second year in a row, Record Houses will be live: see and hear from the architects of 2022’s award-winning houses, from the April issue of the magazine and online, as they explore how to integrate residences into natural surroundings and strategize methods of sustainability and resilience.

This webinar will focus on the importance of including local natural elements into the built environment to improve the overall sustainable design of the project and occupant well-being. In addition to sourcing local materials to reduce energy use in manufacturing and transportation, this webinar will focus on how the inclusion of natural lighting can be used to maintain or improve the emotional condition of occupants, while reducing heat and lighting costs and lowering the buildings overall carbon footprint.
