Description

Internal Seminar

Speaker: Yu Shimizu, Staff Scientist, Integrated Open Systems Unit (Kitano Unit) 

Title: Sustainable Living Architecture 

Abstract:  

With resources dwindling and environmental pollutants increasing, the rapid integration of sustainable infrastructure could be bring a turning point. Integrated Open Systems Unit is engaged in designing, implementing and facilitating socio-economic ecosystems based on scaleable, bottom up infrastructure, that allows for sustainable support of our current life style. In fact, our unit has spent the last five years realizing such a sustainable living architecture on the OIST campus in collaboration with companies from mainland Japan as well as Okinawa. I will give a short overview on the projects involved and the current status of the overall vision.

Following the seminar, please join us for free pizza, soft drinks, and scientific discussion from 5-5:30pm.
