In this executive guide, IMEG President and CEO Paul VanDuyne, Director of Sustainability Adam McMillen, and Director of Innovation Mike Lawless examine equity by design — the ability of the built environment to have positive effects on social inequality. In addition to discussing steps for overcoming bias in AEC firms and capitalizing on data to reach broader, more equitable project outcomes, they also take a look at the evolution of the mission of design from simply making buildings “work” to considering the impact a building can have on visitors and those who may never step foot inside of it.
