Tracks: ICFF Talks Main Stage

What are the specific environmental concerns, and how do they vary by region? What are the most pressing concerns of the audience’s clients? - What are possible shock situations that could happen in the context of your design? - How have shock and stressor situations affected your current designs, and what solutions have you implemented to better prepare you for future situations - What can landlords do to better support their tenants’ resilience goals? - What concerns do landlords have regarding extreme events, and what precautionary moves are companies making to mitigate the effects?

In a world confronted by increasing environmental, economic, and social change, resilient design is at the forefront of our industry’s concerns. It’s no longer an exploratory exercise; it’s an essential conversation for designers, landlords, brokers, and tenants alike. As authors of the RELI standard and experts in the field, Perkins+Will is leading this conversation.
