Our Approach

When it comes to ecological aspects of the design, we match the project’s green goals with the client’s green aspirations. There is very little in the world of ecobuilding that we have not done already. We can bring that expertise to your project. 

Most of our clients want to incorporate the green features that make sense for them, that they value the most. That may be continuously filtered fresh air delivered to bedrooms. Or thorough air sealing to eliminate cold drafts. Recycling construction waste is surprisingly easy to do. Low-flow showerheads save water and energy while providing a satisfying spray. Well-designed compact spaces reduce cost and function well. Just let us know your priorities and we will align your project with them.
