On Monday, November 16, Stephen Kieran and Bjarke Ingels, head of the architectural practice Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), will discuss the differences and similarities in the energy-saving measures used by architects in the United States and Denmark in a panel discussion at Scandinavia House in New York City. The American and Danish architects will analyze the benefits, compromises, and challenges in creating and designing sustainable buildings and communities. Since the two countries vary greatly in size, climatic conditions, and commonly-used building materials and energy-saving features, the discussion will examine how each country can learn from the other. The moderator of the discussion is Suzanne Stephens, deputy editor of Architectural Record. The public event is co-presented with Architectural Record and the Consulate General of Denmark, New York.

See the Scandinavia House website for more information on attending.
