AIA Northwest & Pacific Region Conference: An Emerald Vision |
|
13 Oct 2010 ,
Eugene, Oregon USA |
AIA/Southwestern Oregon invites architecture professionals and their guests from Alaska, Washington, Idaho, Oregon, Montana, Hawaii, Guam/Micronesia, Japan, and Hong Kong to gather in Eugene for the 2010 AIA Northwest and Pacific Region Conference. Dubbed “An Emerald Vision,” the conference will examine the prospects for an architecture that is truly sustainable as we awaken to the realities of climate change, dwindling resources, and the rapid transformation of current professional practice paradigms.
No other region of the Institute comes close to being as geographically and culturally diverse as the Northwest & Pacific Region. This is why there is great value in convening annually as a region to strategize, exchange ideas, network, and simply enjoy each other’s company. There is so much to learn from the multitude of perspectives represented at each AIA Northwest & Pacific Region conference. Join us this October in Eugene. We promise gorgeous fall foliage, innovative thinking, and design excellence. We’ve developed a can’t-miss program with balance and depth –An Emerald Vision.
If you should have any problems when registering, please email Katie Hall at emeraldvision2010@gmail.com or call +1.541.762.1639.
