Want a greener, more energy efficient home without sacrificing style? This week on Room by Room: The Home Organization Science Insights Podcast, host Marie Stella consults civil engineering lecturer Dr. Krishanu Roy for advice on the best design modifications that make a space more functional, beautiful, and eco-friendly.
Currently teaching civil engineering at the University of Waikato, Dr. Krishanu Roy has previously held stints at leading engineering firm for underground structures Geodata Spa, as well as leading supplier of steel products Kiwi Steel Holdings. His research interests involve the fire performance of cold-formed steel structures, as well as the sustainability and life cycle analysis of structures.
