In addition, there will be educational sessions and tours, including: - Approach design as a powerful team. An intensive, hands-on workshop about how to craft architecturally unique home designs as a team.
- Learn about design market trends. Case studies of successful projects that focus on the specific market segments for which the homes were created.
- Tour visionary neighborhoods. Tours are planned for Stapleton, a tapestry of homes, shops, offices, parks and schools in a walkable city; and the largest “built green” community of its kind in North America, Tallyn’s Reach.
