Date: Wednesday, August 26, 2015

Location: Ghyslain - 721 E. Market Street, Lou., KY

Time: Noon - 1:30pm

All are cordially invited to attend a follow up call for volunteers meeting. At last week's discussion we decided to set up a series of meetings as we move forward. The goal is to meet over lunch the fourth Wednesday of each month as our plans solidify.

The primary objectives:
- Establish a structured committee for next year's tour
- Fine tune a strategic outline as a guide to help organize AIA CKC House Tour 2016

All insight is welcome, especially from those who have been instrumental in leading past house tours.

*As always, the success of our events is a result of the relentless effort and dedication of many*

Louisville, KY 40203

Ready to get serious about sustainability?

REGREEN� is the nation's first and most comprehensive green residential remodeling program. The program is based on the REGREEN Residential Remodeling Guidelines�, a set of sustainability best practices that emphasize green product selection, team integration and whole-systems thinking. Filling a unique niche in the

marketplace, REGREEN is designed for professionals who want to create healthy, high-performing spaces. While it was developed for residential renovations, REGREEN is also appropriate for hospitality design and historic renovations.

Interiors-Focused Training

The REGREEN Implementation Workshop addresses the industry-specific challenges interior designers face when renovating a client space. Building on foundational knowledge from the REGREEN Guidelines, the workshop employs faculty-led instruction and team charrettes to prepare designers to identify, evaluate and implement strategies to green their projects. It is the capstone course in the REGREEN Trained™ certificate program and offers 0.8 HSW CEU (IDCEC), which can also be used for LEED CMP. Taught by veteran interior designer Annette Stelmack, Allied ASID, LEED AP BD+C, sustainable design consultant at Inspirit-llc and co-author of Sustainable Residential Interiors.

Learning Objectives

Identify strategies from the REGREEN Residential Remodeling Guidelines� to adopt in daily practice.
Understand the value of engaging whole-systems thinking and professional team integration.
Incorporate spatial relationships, adjacencies and best practices when developing space plans.
Select environmentally-preferable FF&E that contributes to healthy IEQ and resource conservation.
Educate the client about non-toxic cleaning and maintenance operations.
