Michael has been a leading thinker and commenter on a number of topics including sustainable city planning, green building, co-housing, point access blocks and much more.
In Michael's words, his objectives are: Better housing. More affordable housing. Better noise protection. More blue/green infrastructure. Space for trees. Larger courtyards. Until we start tackling those things - and layering additional aspects (hello passivhaus! hello active solar protection! hello homes that can cross ventilate! hello blocks with a diversity of housing types and tenures!) - we're just going to see same poorly planned status quo. Part of why Larch Lab was founded was to change that paradigm. We can't keep going on like this: Inadequate affordable housing. Expensive market rate housing that is sooo poorly planned. Neighborhoods that are not walkable. Zero climate adaptation in our planning processes. In the end it's mostly geometry. But allows for significantly more density, better urban environment, and much better public health outcomes as well.
Join us for this special event made possible by MADE Edmonton, The University of Alberta School of Urban and Regional Planning, Industry partners and more.
