Ecohouse Design for Las Vegas
(Workshop for SOA students and interested professionals from 8:30 - 12:30). For more details and pre-registration information, please contact Daniel Overbey at 895-2767.


Dr. Susan Roaf, City Councilor for the city of Oxford, England and Professor at Oxford Brookes University is one of the United Kingdom’s leading experts in environmentally sensitive design. Although her main locale remains England, Dr. Roaf brings authoritative knowledge in sustainable desert design from her research in Iran where traditional societies utilized principles of design to create comfortable living conditions in a climate not unlike that of Las Vegas. Dr. Roaf has demonstrated through the design of her own residence, dubbed the Ecohouse, how passive and active solar technologies can be successfully integrated in residential buildings. She is also an accomplished and widely published author. Her more recently published books Ecohouse, Ecohouse 2, and Adapting Buildings and Cities for Climate Change published by Architectural Press explore the importance and benefits of sustainable design and the risks posed by climate change to our cities and buildings. Dr. Roaf is a member of the Royal Institute of British Architects and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts.
