We specialize in high performance buildings, providing architectural
consulting, design and research with a focus on energy efficiency and
sustainability. Our consulting is specialized in daylighting, lighting
design, energy modeling, glazing specification, comfort analysis, evaluation of building
performance and LEED certification. We bring a unique perspective to a
project, synthesizing both architectural and engineering approaches to
building design and implementation. We emphasize a collaborative
relationship with our clients and an integrated design process, working
closely with design teams to develop designs that use both traditional
and innovative technologies. We work with an iterative process which
moves between technical analysis, research and the generation of
designs. For over 25 years, the partners have been at the forefront of
university and industry-sponsored research. Our buildings have received
21 AIA awards, including three projects that have received the AIA/COTE
Top Ten Green Projects Award. Seventeen of our projects have been LEED
certified, including one platinum project, three gold, and two silver.
