Sustainable Building Consulting is an integral part of how we approach projects company wide. Most of our team members have received specialized training in “green building” practices to provide effective oversight and guidance to project owners. This is important when clients are choosing to either implement their own green building plans or adopt existing, recognized sustainable building programs. Recognizing the many “shades of green building”, such a determination is driven by our clients’ philosophy and intent to achieve desired sustainability goals.
