We strongly believe that sustainability is more than a checklist of green building materials and construction processes. Key personnel and staff within the firm are LEED Accredited, and the firm is committed to sustainable principles from the earliest stage of design and across all disciplines. A building's response to its location, climate, and orientation can impact the experience of a place for years to come. Thoughtful building design can also accommodate the human need for natural light and fresh air, and reduce our dependence on mechanical systems for physical comfort. Atkin Olshin Schade is committed to the integration of the site and building and to sustainable design principles and technology in building construction.
