Champion of Building Design
A celebration of the life of one of our Champions of Building Design
Vale, Dr Chris Reardon
Chris has been instrumental in what he has achieved in Building Design and leaves a legacy in Building Design – especially in the Sustainability arena. In 2009 we ran an ‘Eco Design Smart’ Series of seminars with Chris which left a massive imprint on the Tasmanian Building Designers. At those multiple sessions there were approx. 60 attendees including building designers and other factions, and to those people it was the beginning of their valuable learning in sustainable building design. It was interesting to note that Chris had a peculiar way of saying “I’m not preaching to you” but he was, however and no-one minded because it was his passion and ability to address and communicate at the appropriate level that got the message across. The seeds of valuable information were sown during the Tasmanian seminars and I’m sure that most participants would have embedded that information into their own design ethos.
And whilst Chris enjoyed a good debate with me, particularly on
thermal mass, rating schemes, to name a few it simply wasn’t in Dr Chris’s
persona to allow the topic to lie idle…
The Tassie Eco-Design Smart Series is just one small example of the excellence that he brought to the Building Design profession given his passion and need to educate as many people as possible.
Chris will be remembered as a Champion of Building Design throughout Australia with a massive eco footprint that has been stamped amongst our colleagues.
Cheers to Dr Chris.
