architects and advocates predict passive revolution

architectesassoc. was present at the 2014 NYPH conference, explaining how brussels went passive, and why, for so many reasons, it’s a non-event : « If architecture is about generosity, then we are probably just doing our job, » said S. Leribaux describing the studio's latest projects. Gunter Lang and Diana Urge Vorsatz also presenting took the same stance. The constraints of PH and their (positive) impact on the european construction market were described with reference to projects like GREENBIZZ currently on site, as was budget impact due to these constraints.
