As architects one of the most significant contributions we can make to support local and global sustainability is to design buildings that are energy efficient and use renewable energy – such as solar energy. Since the 1970’s many of our projects have been using 40-60% less energy than normal code-compliant buildings and often not costing any more to build.
Our approach to energy-efficient design is based on extensive knowledge of daylighting and passive-solar heating principles, and cooling-load reduction strategies.
Since 1977, we have designed over 100 energy-efficient, daylighted buildings which were built within normal building budgets, and have been recognized by state and national awards.
Whether you are interested in formal LEED certification or just in taking advantage of energy-efficient, sustainable practices, our architects and engineers are ready to support you.
