New Achitectural Technology Program Emphasizes Green Building Design In response to a world grappling with finite supplies of fossil fuels and other resources, Centennial College has launched a new full-time program in architectural technology that emphasizes sustainable building design and construction. "Sustainability is the important next direction in architectural design and construction," says Ted Rosen, an architect and program coordinator at Centennial.

Through the exhibition and related programming, The Green House will explore developments in sustainability and will provide an informative overview of this dynamic design movement. This exhibition will take a look at some questions home-owners often ask when considering a green home or product, including: What makes a product green? How is a green home healthier, safer, and more comfortable? and How much does it cost to 'go green?'
