Passive House focuses on:

Super-insulated building envelopes

Airtight construction

High-performance windows and ventilation systems

Dramatic reductions in heating and cooling needs

Speakers emphasized how Passive House design complements LEED and WELL certification systems, creating high-performing buildings that are both energy-efficient and incredibly comfortable for occupants.

Not Just Buildings, But People: Health and Wellness in Green Design

One of the most powerful messages to emerge from the conference was this: Sustainable buildings are not just about saving the planet they're about improving human lives. Whether it’s better indoor air quality, natural light, or acoustic comfort, the human side of green design is becoming central to modern architecture.

Discussions explored:

The role of biophilic design in mental health

The impact of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) on long-term health

Strategies for inclusive design, including accessible and age-friendly architecture

How WELL Building Standards align with LEED and Passive House goals

The push toward health and wellness in building design signals a welcome evolution in how we define success in architecture. A net-zero building that fails to serve the people inside it is no longer good enough.

A Global Community with a Shared Mission

Attending Greenbuild International Conference & Expo is often described as an energizing, almost emotional experience. It’s a rare environment where passion meets practicality, and where people from all over the world can find common ground. The event proves that the sustainable building movement is not just alive it’s thriving, growing, and becoming more inclusive and action-oriented each year.

Among the many reasons to attend:

At the center of this transformation is the Design-Build Institute of America (DBIA), a trailblazing organization that has redefined how projects are delivered across the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry.

Since its founding, DBIA has been on a mission to reshape the way America builds, advocating for a model that breaks down silos and fosters true collaboration. With decades of leadership, DBIA has helped make design-build not just a viable project delivery method but the fastest-growing one in the United States.

What is DBIA and Why Does It Matter?

The Design-Build Institute of America is a non-profit 501(c)(6) membership organization made up of architects, engineers, contractors, project owners, academics, students, and other construction professionals. It is the only association that unites the full spectrum of AEC stakeholders under one umbrella.

3. Advocacy

DBIA is also active in public policy, working with government agencies, legislators, and institutions to promote the use of design-build and remove barriers to its adoption. This includes pushing for legal reforms, funding flexibility, and industry recognition of the method’s advantages.

A Community That Spans the Entire Built Environment

What makes DBIA truly unique is its inclusive membership base. While many industry organizations serve niche groups contractors, architects, engineers DBIA brings them all together.

This multi-disciplinary network allows DBIA to:

Facilitate better industry communication

Create training that reflects the needs of all project phases

Promote solutions that are relevant to both public and private owners

Drive unity in the fragmented AEC landscape

Whether you're a public agency owner, a private sector developer, or a student entering the construction world, DBIA provides a supportive and forward-thinking environment for learning, connecting, and growing.

DBIA's Influence on the Growth of Design-Build in the U.S.

Over the past two decades, design-build has grown from a niche delivery model to the dominant method in many sectors. Today, nearly half of all non-residential construction projects in the U.S. are delivered using design-build.

DBIA has been a major driver of this shift, thanks to its:

Industry-standard guidelines for procurement and contracting

Training of tens of thousands of professionals nationwide

As cities grow, infrastructure ages, and climate resilience becomes more urgent, the need for collaborative, efficient project delivery is greater than ever. DBIA’s vision of Design-Build Done Right® positions it and the professionals it serves as key players in shaping that future.

Emerging trends like modular construction, design for disassembly, AI in project management, and low-carbon building materials all align naturally with the design-build model’s flexibility and integrated approach.

In the years to come, DBIA will continue to:

Lead national conversations about infrastructure transformation

Equip professionals with future-ready skills and tools

Strengthen policy frameworks that support innovation

Ensure that design-build remains a catalyst for positive change

Redefining How America Builds

What started as an “alternative” method has become the new standard and much of that is thanks to the vision, leadership, and persistence of the Design-Build Institute of America.

DBIA represents more than just a project delivery philosophy; it represents a movement. A movement toward better buildings, stronger communities, and a more integrated, efficient construction industry.
