Atelier Ten at NYC Climate Week 2025

We are looking forward to connecting at NYC Climate Week in September. Atelier Ten will be participating in the following panels throughout the week – we hope to see you there!

Shanta Tucker, Director will join panelists from Redbrick, NY Green Bank, and the Columbia Business School for a lively exploration on the successes, challenges, and future of decarbonizing new and existing assets. Buildings account for nearly 40% of global carbon emissions — making them central to the climate challenge and opportunity. The panelists will explore the question: How do we finance, design, and deliver the transition developments to net zero?

Decarbonizing the Built Environment | Monday, September 22 · 6–8 pm ET | 130 East 59th St., 7th Floor, New York, NY

Ben Shepherd, Director will participate in a panel discussion at Yale University centered around decarbonizing the existing building stock. As 80% of the buildings that will be occupied in 2050 already exist, decarbonizing the existing building stock will be critical to achieving a sustainable future. Ben will join Yale Faculty and practicing architects with experience in rehabilitating existing buildings to address this challenge both from a theoretical and practical perspective.

Greening Our Existing Building Stock | Thursday, September 25 · 2:30—3:45 pm ET | The Yale Club of New York City: 50 Vanderbilt Ave, New York, NY 10017 

To wrap up the week, Shanta Tucker will join a panel of industry experts from Architecture 2030 and Grimshaw for a discussion on advancing decarbonization and regenerative design in the built environment. Drawing on lessons from across North America and Europe, the panelists will unpack real-world progress and challenges in decarbonizing buildings, and how equity, biodiversity and climate resilience can be woven into one unified approach.

Scaling Building Decarbonization and Regenerative Design through Synergies | Thursday, September 25 · 5—7pm ET | 60 Madison Avenue, 4th floor New York, NY
