Event Recap: Advancing Bio-Based Materials at SvN Architects + Planners

On December 19, 2024, we gathered at SvN Architects + Planners for a thought-provoking event hosted in collaboration with the Toronto BioBuild Collective. This gathering brought together architects, designers, students, and industry professionals to explore innovative bio-based materials and strategies for sustainable construction.

Event Highlights:

  • Innovative Bio-Based Materials: SvN introduced their in-house bio-based material library and shared progress on the "Upfront Carbon Materials Catalogue."

  • Student Projects: We explored fascinating student work from the University of Toronto, showcasing regional material potential and lifecycle analysis.

  • Engaging Discussions: The event sparked meaningful conversations about the role of healthier, lower-carbon materials in reshaping the construction industry.

Looking Ahead:
This report not only reflects on the event but also serves as a call to action. We encourage you to stay engaged, share it within your network, and collaborate with us as we work to drive meaningful change in the industry.
