Episode 3: Margaret Montgomery - Reframing Design Excellence

Margaret Montgomery is the Global Sustainable Design Leader at NBBJ, and she covers a lot of ground in this episode. From her Mom reading Rachel Carson when Margaret was young to large building projects that won’t open until 2030, she offers wide perspective. We talk about her recent work with the American Institute of Architects, to help refresh their Framework for Design Excellence to be more holistic from a sustainability perspective. Margaret recalls several influences and defining projects of her career, and gives some great insights around design for equitable communities.
