Interested in institutional work? What about the sustainability goals of the second-largest school district in the country? Los Angeles Unified School District's Chief Eco-Sustainability Officer Christos Chrysiliou FAIA, CCM, LEED AP sat down to talk with Margie O'Driscoll, Hon. AIA as part of Architecture at Zero's "Talks" series: https://loom.ly/xxPuzzA This year's Architecture at Zero competition is for a new building on a middle school campus in East Los Angeles. The competition is open to students and professionals worldwide, with the intention to increase decarbonization, equity, and resilience in design. The fact that it's for a theoretical project, not a school to be realized, doesn't alter the fact that it's a great opportunity to learn from Chrysiliou. Do take a look: https://loom.ly/xxPuzzA
