CCBA will lead by example by showcasing the unifying language of design and it's vocabulary of principles of design

The unifying language, developed by CCBA over 4 decades of practice, and it's vocabulary consists of various design principles - scales and proportion, balance of inside and outside, design as a template between immediate and surrounding landscape and most of all, expression of materials in its natural form.
