Program Overview

The new Cincinnati Public Radio building features mass timber and daylighting to create a welcoming and sustainable broadcasting facility. Adam Luginbill of emersion design will lead a one-hour construction tour of the building and will discuss the many ways the building supports CPR’s mission and staff.

The building design demonstrates welfare for the environment through sustainable design, including the pursuit of LEED Gold.  The choice of mass timber was driven by CPR’s desire for the extensive use of a biophilic material. Design of the building was strongly influenced by the occupants’ desire for daylighting, views and good indoor air quality.The presentation will focus on how these features were incorporated into the overall structure. As a news organization, physical security for the staff was a very high priority and played an important role in the organization of the building.

Space is limited to 20 attendees.

Meet at the job trailer on Realistic Avenue. Parking is available on site. (see maps in registration for details). Attendees are REQUIRED to wear hard hats, vests, eye protection, gloves, and sturdy footwear.

Presented by AIA Cincinnati’s Committee on the Environment (COTE).

Learning Objectives

  • Understand the benefits of using mass timber as the structural system, including reducing CO2 emissions and providing biophilic design benefits for the occupants.

  • Understand how the design uses layered security to welcome the public and provide safety for the staff.

  • Understand the special acoustical needs of building occupants focused on audio production and how those needs translate into the building assemblies.

  • Learn how radiant heating and cooling supports the building design and promotes occupant health through improved indoor air quality.
