Research

Mr. Walters’ current research is centered on high-performance zero-energy buildings, within a broader context of social, artistic, and cultural production. This work engages building science, thermal/energy modelling, climatic responses, and materiality.

His research into these issues to date has centered on three funded research projects: Solar Living House (Solar Decathlon 2015), Quinlivan Net-Zero Energy House, and Project Re:Focus (Solar Decathlon Europe 2010). He served as Principal Investigator on the first two of these projects and as Co-Principal Investigator on the third. His work has been supported by $521,233 in external funding and $28,500 in internal funding.

In addition to this project-related work, Mr. Walters formalizes research findings through presentations at academic and professional conferences. Recent presentations include those to the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture (ACSA), the Association of Architectural Educators (AAE) in the United Kingdom, the American Solar Energy Society (ASES), and the American Institute of Architects (AIA). These typically involve blind, peer-reviewed abstracts prior to presentation. His work has been subsequently published in refereed conference proceedings.

Mr. Walters’ work with high-performance buildings and sustainability also engages the education of architects and practice. As a result, his research extends into teaching methods, pedagogy, and visual communications. His written work on these subjects has been subjected to peer-reviews, presented to peers through conferences, and included in numerous refereed publications, including those of the National Conference of the Beginning Design Student (NCBDS) and the Design Communication Association (DCA). His written work has been included in Representations, the peer-reviewed Journal of the Design Communication Association.
