Wine & Design – From Ruin to Renewal: The Role of Design After Disaster (Registration Required)

Panel (Registration Required)VFTI Special Event

Join us for light bites and drinks during our VFTI Wine and Design series. This free event is open to VFTI attendees, but advance registration is required as space is limited.

When disaster strikes, rebuilding isn’t just about structures, it’s about resilience, accessibility, and creating spaces ready for every stage of life. This session examines how destruction can open doors for innovation, from designing homes that support recovery and independence to incorporating universal features for long-term living. Attendees will gain insight into the challenges of rebuilding after natural disasters, key design strategies for safety and adaptability, and the importance of creating spaces that foster comfort, dignity, and preparedness for the future.
