About the event

At the 2026 New York Build Expo 2026, join Sarah Dresher, Founder and Principal of LIT, alongside Brandon Clokey, Internal Vice President of the American Institute of Building Design, for the workshop “The Challenges of Truly Inclusive Residential Design.” 

Explore how homes communicate through scale, light, materials, acoustics, and spatial organization, shaping how people feel, function, and live every day. Discover the concept of the “Language of Space” and learn how residential design can balance measurable factors like accessibility and safety with deeper outcomes such as comfort, belonging, and identity.

Through real-world residential scenarios, the workshop demonstrates how designers can translate homeowner stories into thoughtful spatial solutions, helping create homes that are not only functional but truly supportive of the people who live in them.
