Sustainable Design and LEED
Environmental stewardship and achieving sustainability are driving considerations in all our practice areas. We have applied principles of sustainability in virtually every sector we serve, including municipal buildings (fire stations, police stations, schools, libraries and park facilities), university facilities, museums, commercial and residential buildings.
Most of our design is based on sustainable practices, and holistically considers the use of resources, environmental quality, and innovative processes. Many of our projects feature specific sustainability initiatives and/or certification by the Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rating system.
