The Open Building Workshop is a joint programme organised by CIB W104 Open Building Implementation and Council on Open Building.
Workshop topic
Changes all the Time
Functions and floor plans change all the time in large buildings, in every country, because societies are dynamic, and performance standards and user requirements evolve.
Continual Adaptation
Yet we need buildings to last for 100+ years. In their decisions and practices, it is incumbent on clients, design service professionals, public officials and builders to plan for the inevitability of continual adaptation.
Designing for Change
Without designing our building stock for change, our collective efforts of meeting sustainability goals are severely undermined.
Open Building workshop plan
This 3.5 hour hands-on workshop will engage a group of 20 – 30 participants from many design disciplines and countries in design exercises led by Open Building experts.
Registration
To attend this workshop you are required to register to attend WBC2025 for one day or the whole conference
