These are to be thoughtfully considered by designer and client at the initiation of every project and incorporated into the work as appropriate to the project scope. The Framework is intended to be accessible and relevant for every architect\, every client\, and every project\, regardless of size\, typology\, or aspiration. \n\n\n\n\nJoin us for an enlightening webinar where we delve into the Common Application\, a vital tool in the Design Awards process adopted by AIA Chapters nationwide. Our session will demystify the Common App and focus on common pitfalls and mistakes encountered by submitters. Additionally\, the presenters will cover the new 2025 updates. \n\n\n\nWhether you’re a seasoned participant or new to the process\, our webinar aims to equip you with the knowledge and insights necessary to navigate the Common App effectively. From understanding its structure to optimizing your submissions\, our panel of experts is here to assist. Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your understanding and elevate your submissions for Design Awards. \n\n\n\nLearning Objectives: \n\n\n\n\nWalk through AIA’s Framework for Design Excellence and its importance within all project types.\n\n\n\nExplore the Common Application and answer questions on how to correctly pull out and calculate energy data.\n\n\n\nCompare different categories of buildings\, how they are weighed in the technical review process and how submitters can address Framework areas their projects do not excel in.\n\n\n\nAnalyze strategies that correctly and efficiently pull data on a project and complete the Common Application without it heavily affecting firm time.\n\n\n\n\nPresenters: \n\n\n\n\nKatie Ackerly\, AIA\, LEED AP\, CPHC\, is Principal and Sustainable Design Director at David Baker Architects\, a firm known for elevating the design of multi-family housing.

It is a solution that reduces water aging\, delivers hot water faster\, generates significant construction cost savings\, reduces the carbon footprint of the structure\, and subsequently saves on water- and water heating-related utility bills for the entire life of the plumbing system. Effective July 1\, 2024\, the WDC became part of the California Plumbing Code (as Appendix M). Instead of using flow rates and flush volumes from the 1940s\, the WDC will allow plumbing designers to “right-size” the cold and hot water distribution systems in homes and apartment buildings using modern information about flow rates and simultaneous use. \n\n\n\nLearning Objectives: \n\n\n\n\nDifferentiate the conditions that existed for the “default” water supply demand sizing method from the conditions that are incorporated into the Water Demand Calculator (WDC) when selecting a method for sizing peak water demand.\n\n\n\nDescribe the savings in cost\, water\, energy\, and carbon emissions achieved by using the WDC in the plumbing design of a multifamily building\n\n\n\nSummarize the reduced public health and safety risk as well as water quality benefit of plumbing systems designed using the WDC when justifying the use of the WDC.\n\n\n\nLocate instructional resources for using the WDC in the plumbing designs of upcoming projects.\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGary Klein\, President of Gary Klein & Associates has been intimately involved in energy efficiency and renewable energy since 1974. Mr. Klein has a passion for hot water: getting into it\, getting out of it and efficiently delivering it to meet customers’ needs. He works to simplify building codes and to get architects and builders to use plumbing systems that\, by their design\, deliver hot water quickly and with minimal waste. \n\n\n\nAfter serving 19 years with the California Energy Commission\, he has provided consulting on sustainability since 2008. Mr. Klein received a BA from Cornell University in 1975 with an Independent Major in Technology and Society with an emphasis on energy conservation and renewable energy.

Participants will examine how the redesign preserves the architectural integrity of the original structure while incorporating modern interventions inspired by the urban and industrial surroundings. Key topics include designing for multigenerational living\, integrating sustainable and cost-conscious strategies\, and maintaining a strong connection to community and place. Special emphasis is placed on design decisions that enhance occupant health\, safety\, and welfare\, ensuring long-term comfort\, accessibility\, and sustainability. \n\n\n\nLearning objectives:\n\n\n\n\nMultigenerational Design Strategies for Health and Accessibility – Analyze how architectural solutions can accommodate multigenerational living while ensuring safety\, accessibility\, and well-being through features such as universal design\, aging-in-place strategies\, and shared spaces that support social interaction and mental health.\n\n\n\nContextual Adaptation and Historic Preservation for Community Welfare – Evaluate how modifications to historic homes can respect original architectural character while enhancing occupant safety\, structural integrity\, and energy efficiency to improve long-term habitability and resilience.\n\n\n\nSustainable and Cost-Conscious Material Selections for Occupant Health – Identify material choices and energy-efficient strategies that contribute to indoor air quality\, thermal comfort\, and low-maintenance durability\, thereby enhancing the long-term health and safety of residents.\n\n\n\nMaximizing Natural Light and Space Efficiency for Well-Being – Assess the role of spatial planning\, ceiling heights\, glazing strategies\, and outdoor connections in creating an open\, light-filled home that supports circadian rhythms\, mental well-being\, and improved indoor air quality.\n\n\n\n\nBy the end of this course\, participants will have gained insights into how thoughtful design can bridge past and future while prioritizing occupant health\, safety\, and welfare. This approach ensures that evolving family needs\, sustainability\, and affordability shape a home that remains deeply connected to its community and history. \n\n\n\nPresenter:\n\n\n\nBecher Neme\, AIA\, Neme Design Studio\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSponsored by \n\n\n\n\nJoshua Myers – Area Sales Manager \n\n\n\njoshua.myers@azekco.com \n\n\n\n949-805-8794 \n\n\n\n\n\nAndre Medina – Principal \n\n\n\nandre@amlightstudio.com \n\n\n\n559-546-2644 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCoastal CRAN (Custom Residential Architects Network) is a knowledge community of the AIA Long Beach / South Bay URL:https://aialb-sb.org/event/c-cran-quietly-bold-052925/ LOCATION:Quietly Bold\, 4131 E. 11th St.\, Long Beach\, California\, 90804 CATEGORIES:CEU,CRAN,Programs,Tour ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://aialb-sb.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Copy-of-Copy-of-Copy-of-C-CRAN-Quietly-Bold-45.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250531T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250531T140000 DTSTAMP:20260422T180444 CREATED:20250507T192716Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250507T192840Z UID:25220-1748685600-1748700000@aialb-sb.org SUMMARY:Home Improvement Expo DESCRIPTION:May is National Home Improvement Month!\n\n\n\nMeet architects and vendors in the home improvement and remodeling industry!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearn about this event provided by the City of Long Beach – Community Development Department URL:https://aialb-sb.org/event/home-improvement-expo/ LOCATION:Whaley Park\, 5620 E.
