Sustainability/LEED
Our capabilities provide for a range of sustainable outcomes. Helps local governments reduce carbon footprints, our architects and engineers deliver high-performance buildings.

Sustainability demands whole-systems understanding and interdisciplinary collaboration across architecture and building engineering as well as programming and construction management. It also demands that client goals, project site context, and sustainability targets be examined by the whole project team at the outset of the work. Our specialized sustainability project teams are experienced in integrated planning and building processes, utilizing the most effective techniques and technologies. Some of these items include: natural daylighting, specification of materials with recycled content, high performance glazing, well-insulated shell construction, reflective roof surfaces, energy efficient heating and cooling systems, low flow plumbing fixtures, high efficiency lighting fixtures controlled by occupancy sensors, safe refrigerants, carbon dioxide measurement, and enhanced ventilation effectiveness.

Services include:

• Building performance
• Renewable energy strategies
• Building energy assessments
• LEED design standard integration
• Integrated building management
• Engineering economic analysis
