Carbon Neutral Corridors: Designing For a Resilient and Connected Future
Jacob Davis |
TEDxMemphis
• October 2021
Jacob Davis reimagines Middle America’s aging commercial corridor building stock as a conduit for 21st century community building. As an architecture practice in Memphis, Tennessee, Davis and his team developed a case study as an investment in their community and to demonstrate what is possible. The project has received both Zero Energy and Zero Carbon Certification by the International Living Future Institute (ILFI); the first existing building in the world to receive this recognition. Throughout his Talk, Jacob challenges that twenty-First century development should set minimum standards for fossil fuel elimination and carbon neutrality through incremental changes to connectivity, design, and sustainability.
