The Coolest Buildings Aren’t Green | Bryn Davidson | TEDxRenfrewCollingwood

Published on Nov 26, 2014

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the 
TED Conferences. Creating 'greener' buildings will help address climate 
change... right?
Green buildings can make a difference, but only if we start asking the 
right questions. If we can start to see the whole story of how our 
buildings impact the climate then we can start to make strides toward 
real 'net-positive' change. The technology isn't new, the strategies 
aren't rocket science - the hard step is shifting our thinking about 
what it means to build 'green'.

Bryn Davidson wears many hats. Sure, he’s a LEED-accredited building 
designer, sustainability consultant and small business owner with 
degrees in Architecture (UBC) and Mechanical Engineering (UC Berkeley). 
But he doesn’t stop there. He’s also one of the co-founders of Lanefab 
Design / Build; a Vancouver-based design and construction company that 
built the city’s first laneway house in 2010. Since then, Lanefab has 
continued its specialization in energy efficient green homes and infill 
‘laneway houses’ by completing over 40 of the small infill homes. Bryn 
Davidson has been on the leading edge of the laneway house industry, and 
we don’t see him slowing down anytime soon.
