Educational insights 4 | ‘How we shape the future of facades’

Mainstage

Moderator: Marcel Bilow

Educational masterminds, former top students who eventually beated their grandmasters and have grown into serious positions in the design and engineering industry, will share their knowledge on stage on how to shape future proof facades. In Europe, the educational programs we offer our future architects and facade experts are well known, high level and an inspiration for everybody. But what can we learn from former students who are actually running the business nowadays?

How can we make sure that the knowledge of today is transferred into the brains of the talented future architects? And how does this effect the way we design and shape facades in the next 20 years? Leaded by Mr. Bucky Lab Marcel Bilow himself, these experts will share their visions on the shaping of the next generation facades and facade experts.

Speaker education program 4:

Lisa Rammig, Director Eckersley O’Callaghan

About Lisa Ramming.
Lisa is a Director at Eckersley O’Callaghan, having joined in 2013 to support the emerging facade engineering service which complements the practice’s work in structural engineering and envelope design.

Since mid-2017 Lisa is responsible for EOC’s recently opened San Francisco office, growing the studio and presence on the West Coast and the local team after having spent significant amount of project-related time in the Bay-Area over the past years.

She leads many of the facade group’s most challenging projects including a large corporate campus in California and facade specific work to a number of high profile retail stores. Through her education and relationships within the European Facade Network, she remains heavily involved in academia and has built strong links between research and industry. This unique position enables her to identify and integrate innovative products and approaches for the practical application on cutting-edge building envelopes.

Lisa has the responsibility of directing EOC’s R&D efforts globally, focusing on innovative glass designs and technology which maintain EOC’s position as leaders in the field, but also identifying new fields of research including a variety of materials and novel analysis approaches. Whilst remaining heavily involved in her own research projects, she focuses the team in developing their own areas of technical enquiry. In addition to the industry driven R&D efforts at EOC, Lisa is part of the Facade Research Group at TU Delft, where she carried out her doctoral research on transparent glass connections.
