Design e² : the economies of being environmentally conscious Distributed by PBS Home Video, c2006
Examines the economies of being environmentally conscious in green building design.
The first program, The green apple, uses New York City, particularly One Bryant Park and the Solaire, to demonstrates how the ubiquitous skyscraper can be a model of environmental responsibility.
The second episode, Green for all, features architect and activist Sergio Palleroni as he works to provide design solutions to regions suffering from social and humanitarian crises. Shows projects in East Austin, Tex. and with the Yaqui Indians in Mexico where architecture students are helping residents build low-cost, environmentally-friendly homes using local materials.
The third program, The green machine, follows Mayor Richard M. Daley as he strives to make Chicago "the greenest city in America" with numerous LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)-certified buildings, a solar-powered public transportation system, and many green roofs, including one on Chicago's City Hall.
The fourth episode, Gray to green, takes the notion of the three R's (reduce, reuse, recycle) to grand proportions by turning Boston's "Big Dig" steel and concrete waste into spectacular residential design.
The fifth program, China : from red to green? depicts a rapidly urbanizing country at its tipping point and finds a sustainable solution in Steven Holl's Beijing project, which will have the largest geothermal heating/cooling and greywater recycling system in the world upon completion.
The sixth program, Deeper shades of green, presents three visionaries who are changing the face of architecture and environmentalism and features some of their projects. Focuses on Ken Yeang and his "bio-climatic" National Library of Singapore, Werner Sobek and R128, his energy-efficient, steel and glass box house, and William McDonough and his model sustainable village of Huangbaiyu, China

- The UNLV School of Architecture and the Klai Juba Lecture Series welcomed Ed Mazria, a passive solar architect who has dedicated 30 years to the field of architecture. Ed Mazria is the Founder of the Global 2030 Challenge, which will transform buildings into carbon neutral buildings which will benefit the environment. Mazria main concerns deal with issues such as resource depletion and rising energy consumption. The lecture includes detailed graphs and charts of not only energy and resource consumption in the United States but also includes global statistics. Mazria's concerns on global warming bring forth a harsh reality on issues such as climate change, endangered species and species as well as many changes that will affect the ecosystems. Mazria then introduces "The 2010 Imperative", which will change the way professional schools of architecture go about the curriculum on design. Studio projects will be designed to engage the environment in away that reduces or eliminates the need for fossil fuel. Mazria's final topic is the introduction of the "2030 Global Challenge", in which new building projects and major renovations meet fossil fuel energy consumption performance of half the national average for that building type. Mazria also looks at some of the world's most efficient buildings

- Klai::Juba Lecture Series. The UNLV School of Architecture and the Klai Juba lecture series welcomed Architect Greg Lynn. Lynn is best known for his innovative design approach called "Blob Architecture", which has distinguished him from others in the architecture profession. Lynn's studio, located in Venice, California, uses the latest in high-end technology & software, which allows him to create and design the irregular forms he is best known for. Greg Lynn's ability to adapt to many design disciplines such as industrial design, interior architecture, as well as architecture allows him to be creative on many scales of design. His designs vary widely from flatware for Alessi to a large scale architectural project in the Netherlands. Additional examples of Lynn's work include the Ravioli chair, the Alessi Tea and Coffee Tower, Bubble Wall for the Slavin House, United Architects design competition entries for the World Trade Center and European Central Bank, as well as Sociopolis, a project located in Valencia, Spain

"Students are invited to investigate what the future holds for hotel design in the age of advanced technology and customized consumer experiences. Fifty years from now, the design of resort hotels and the experience of their guests are certain to be influenced by technologies that are in development today. This unique, digital design competition seeks original ideas about the scale and scope of changes in the hospitality industry. Working individually or in teams, students will first need to consider the journey to the destination, whether in orbit, under the sea, or in an urban setting. The design of the resort itself will need to incorporate the latest uses of structural and material systems, form development, and information technology. The results will be packaged into a digital submission containing the design of a resort hotel for the year 2055 with a minimum of 100 guest rooms and facilities for a wide variety of public and private functions"--Publisher's website
