Architecture & Sustainable Design: Chad Karper

"Architecture is a puzzle: the angle of the sun’s rays, the mechanical systems, and the materials used. These work together in response to the project’s environmental location. The designer must make these pieces come together to create an efficient, long-lasting project. Buildings impact how future generations live on our planet."
