Carl presented "Live Well, Live Sustainably: The Passive House Promise" at the Dayton Regional Green Sustainability Luncheon. The presentation focused on the health, comfort, durability, and quality-of-life benefits of Passive House certification.

The Myers-Heckman residence is featured as the first case study in the AIA's Guide to Building Reuse for Climate Action. The Guide is aimed to help architects mitigate and adapt to climate change when renovating existing buildings. The Myers-Heckman residence is a LEED Platinum retrofit and addition to an 1870s townhome by Sol design + consulting that shows that high-performance is achievable even in the context of a protected historic builidng.

Carl presents alongside Sanyog Rathod at the Design Columbus conference in a session titled: "Implementing Passive House Principles in Three Homes: Historic Retrofit and New Construction."
