Our Commitment to Sustainability
Respecting the environment and building sustainably is not about following the trends. It’s about a personal and professional commitment towards both Nature and Humanity. It means being able to incorporate and update time-honored ancestral architecture with the most efficient, yet most innovative materials and building techniques we can find. Going beyond simple sustainability to holistic integration.
Eco Design. Our way standard for sustainable building emphasizes the local climate and surrounding conditions to control the temperature at home; such considering sun orientation to best manage heating, cooling, ventilation and lighting. This kind of design is more energy-efficient and helps the residents save money on energy costs.
Native Landscaping. Making the right landscaping choices can make a big impact in reducing public water consumption. By planting trees, plants, and grasses that are native to the area, we can greatly decrease irrigation needs. Landscaping can also aid with cooling and protecting the construction from the outside elements. By planting trees that shade the roof and windows during the hottest time of the day, solar heat gain inside the building can be minimized.
