For the Environment's Sake!
Update: 2025-04-08
Description
We sat down with Benjamin Cohen, Principal at James G. Davis Construction, to dive into two key topics: sustainability and the fast-paced world of interiors construction. We look closely at how Ben’s perspective on buildings as living organisms pushes him to put an innovative sustainability mindset at the forefront of every project he works on, from benchmarking carbon impacts to designing new projects with material reuse front and center.
We recorded this episode live at the National Building Museum, so make sure to check it out on our YouTube channel.
We discuss:
- The circular economy and high-performing buildings
- Regional differences in sustainability practices
- Material reusability considerations for interiors construction
- Thorough benchmarking practices to measure total carbon impact
- The challenges of renovating historic buildings with modern technology and materials
Digital Builder is hosted by Eric Thomas of Autodesk.
