RECORD, in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology School of Architecture, is pleased to be returning to the MIT Media Lab on Wednesday, February 19, for the third edition of Sustainability in Practice. The day-long event, which aligns with the special Sustainability in Practice section in the February issue of Architectural Record, will showcase cutting-edge research and built projects employing sustainable materials, circular construction, upcycling retrofits, and more. Following the event program will be an informal evening cocktail reception. Attendance is complimentary with registration.
Following a morning of sponsored sessions, the event’s editorial program kicks off with an in-depth look at how Greece’s second-tallest building, the long-dormant Piraeus Tower, has been resuscitated as an exemplar of sustainable building strategies. Project architect Ilias Papageorgiou, founder of Athens- and New York–based Pila Studio, will discuss how the deep-green retrofit awakened a “sleeping giant” in a Greek port city that itself is undergoing sweeping change.
