The professions and fields of research required to ensure buildings meet user demands and provide healthy enclosures are many and diverse. The SEEDS conference addresses the interdependence of people, the built and natural environments, and recognizes the interdisciplinary and international themes necessary to assemble the knowledge required for positive change. Fosters ideas on how to reduce negative impacts on the environment; Presents leading-edge research at the intersection of sustainability, ecology, engineering, and design; Examines energy, building performance, and physics research within the context of health, life quality, and ecology
