sustainable solutions & services
We take a comprehensive, integrative approach to problem-solving to arrive at innovative solutions and designs. By considering contingencies throughout a building's "system" and interpreting this in terms of real energy costs and social trade-offs of the building's life-cycle, we capture the big picture and mitigate present and future impacts. The goal is to maximize energy savings and efficiencies during a building's lifespan so returns on investment can be achieved in shorter timeframes.

INTERIOR LANDSCAPING |
INNOVATIVE DESIGN |
LEED VERIFICATION |
| Horticultural solutions - including green, living and art walls - for commercial spaces, taking into consideration natural and artificial illumination, traffic patterns, aesthetics and budgets with the overall goal of improving interior air quality and meeting sustainability requirements. |
Our architectural and design team excels at developing innovative solutions to challenging problems. Nature-inspired solutions range from the simple and obvious to custom, site-specific prototypes which address regional issues and exceed industry standards to push the sustainable envelope. |
Green building consulting and audit services to ensure projects meet LEED requirements and achieve certification. Designs for new construction and renovations as well as maintenance and operational processes are subject to BIM simulation and analysis for optimal energy efficiency and sustainable design. |

DAYLIGHTING OPTIONS |
BIO-REMEDIATION |
|
Energy efficient solar shades for commercial applications. Achieve personal, thermal and visual comfort in conjunction with the more efficient use of natural resources. These are creative solutions to brightness, glare and solar control problems. |
Natural, EPA approved, non-pathogenic and non-genetically engineered microbial solutions to clean and remediate contaminated sites for re-use. Their deployment maintains a healthy eco-system and helps reclaim abandoned, hazardous areas for re-development initiatives and prevention of urban sprawl. |
Turn a roof, windows or a building's facade into a complete, multifunctional, high-performing, solar-energy power plant. BIPVs such as canopies, curtain walls, brise soleils, skylights, walkable roofs and infinite combinations of PV glass are possible by choosing color, pattern, transparency, thickness and sizes. |

GREEN ROOFS |
ENERGY MANAGEMENT |
Reduce heat island effects, energy costs and storm water run-off by adding a green roof. These are lightweight, easily installable systems with drought tolerant perennials and zone-specific plants which filtrate water, insulate roofs from heat, cold and noise while reducing a building's carbon footprint. |
Stay on top of your building's energy consumption and increase energy efficiencies with intelligent, transparent cloud-base software solutions which display real-time data and consumption levels. This is a great catalyst for engaging everyone and changing behaviors. |
