Overview
A charrette is an intensive workshop where stakeholders and experts address a particular design issue, from a single building to an entire community.
Charrettes can:
- encourage integrated design between all the stakeholders who can influence design and construction decisions.
- help kick off the design process.
- define and encourage agreement on project goals.
- save time and money by soliciting ideas, issues, and concerns early in the design process.
- promote "collective enthusiasm" for a project with early realistic goals and directions.
Target Audience
Building owners, design teams, public officials and others committed to integrated design and achieving superior environmental building performance.
Learning Objectives
- Learn the value of green building charrettes to achieving integrated design.
- Understand the planning and logistics required for a successful charrette.
- Review successful examples of green design charrettes.
