Content Description

The Design Possibilities of Palm, 2024
CEU: 0.1 | CEU Code: SF-EN-204401-1125

Smith & Fong Company / Plyboo Palm is a plentiful but underused resource with many possibilities to enhance architectural design. This course describes the growth, harvesting, and rendering of palm, how it is manufactured into flooring, plywood, and paneling products, and what to consider when specifying and installing. A detailed look at the products available as well as project examples demonstrates how palm products may apply to several credits and features in the LEED v4.1 Building Design and Construction and Interior Design and Construction rating systems and the WELL Building Standard" version 2. 60 minutes.

Learning Objectives

  • Discuss how palm can help satisfy the embodied carbon requirements of LEED v4.1 and WELL v2 and can be responsibly sourced, harvested, and processed while economically benefitting local communities.
  • Explain how palm flooring, architectural plywood, and architectural carved wall and ceiling panels are manufactured and can contribute to the healthy indoor air quality requirements of LEED v4.1 and WELL v2.
  • Describe specification and installation considerations for palm products, including how palm panels can help meet the acoustic comfort requirements of WELL v2.
  • Use product and project examples to assess the potential of palm to help meet LEED v4.1 and WELL v2 requirements for bringing natural materials and biophilic design elements into the indoor environment.

Faculty BIO

Palm trees are an underutilized, little-known sustainable building material that offers great promise in applications for interior design as well as exterior uses such as cladding and decking. With more than 20 years of experience in sourcing and manufacturing with palm lumber, I am excited to bring this knowledge and experience to the greater architectural community.
