Description
From Peace Talks:
In this episode, we are exploring innovative solutions to the housing crisis in Vermont. We talk with Jason Van Nest who is an Architect, a professor at NY-Tech, and the Founder & CEO of LOGIC Building Systems. The crux of the matter is that new, affordable homes need to be built for younger, more diverse populations, but not at the expense of existing Vermont communities or the environment. Conventional approaches to development have struggled to address these issues because of the complex dynamic systems at play. Economic, social, and environmental interests all overlap in contradictory ways when it comes to housing. But what if there was a way to address these overlapping interests and needs by shifting our focus from home construction to industrial revolution? Tune in and see how an architect is transforming the housing market by design.
