By working together and exchanging Ideas, we can develop insightful solutions, and present options from which informed decisions can be made.  We will assist in building consensus at every stage of the design process, and keep the team focused on the project mission and goals that are established.

As a result, the final design will synthesize your organization’s culture to create a unique “Sense of Place” that is both inspirational and functional.

Sustainable Design - Green Building Strategies

A “Sustainable” or “Green” approach to design will provide a safe and healthy environment for your staff while reducing your overall energy and operating costs.  Whether you are looking to obtain the benefits of a LEED certified building or want to incorporate only those design elements that most benefit your business practices, we can help! We can advise you of sustainable principles that can be incorporated into your project, regardless of size or budget, to maximize the benefits of your investment.  From the smallest design detail to an entire green systems building, together we can achieve your objectives and make a difference.

Basic sustainable elements can be incorporated without increasing your construction costs.  While these strategies will not produce a LEED certified building, they will modestly reduce your utility and maintenance costs.  In addition, you will gain the benefits of an improved image and other marketing advantages - a true “win-win” situation for both you and the environment.
