A dynamic panel featuring project teams from Gensler, RDG, and Hanbury shared how they partnered with clients to explore, design, and advance mass timber projects.

Following the presentations, Craig Borum, professor at the Taubman School of Architecture, led a moderated discussion on what it really takes to move mass timber from concept to construction.
