Description
We are joined by Loreana Padron to talk about what it is that a Head of Sustainability does and, more broadly, the value of post occupancy evaluation (POE) to all the stakeholders in a retrofit project.Loreana tells us about the path she's taken to becoming Head of Sustainability at Architecture firm ECD, a leading sustainability-focused practice, and takes time revisit the Wilmcote House project which we featured way back in 2021. This time, we're more focused on the POE aspect, in part, driven by the inclusion of the Wilmcote House project in Marion Baeli's 10 retrofits revisited project which we featured back in April.Some listeners may want to go back to episode, 23 EnerPHit at Scale with James Traynor of ECD Architects. It's a very old one, so please bear in mind that as badly produced as this podcast may be now (still) we've got a lot better. The content is excellent still though because James is brilliant and it's an amazing project. Listen out for news about the retrofit design course she's been editing and the 'secret' group of heads of sustainability, something that should be a much more common model for sharing knowledge, providing an opportunity for bigger practices who are able to invest in research to share it with smaller practices in order to further the cause.Mea culpa: embarrassingly, I got Loreana's name wrong when I introduce her. Apologies. I don't know how, but II have done worse.Notes from the show
