Here at Broadleaf Architecture, we are committed to
delivering buildings that are sustainable. To us this means
designing buildings that are energy efficient, create less
waste, and that use less resources. We understand that the
built environment puts a great demand on our natural resources, and we
strive in all aspects of our work to minimize our impact, whether it is
re-purposing our used office paper into notebooks we use everyday
to specifying local materials to be used in a project.
Rather than designing a project and then trying to make
it sustainable through the use of imported "sustainable"
materials, expensive specialized glazing, or the latest "greenest"
roof, we incorporate sustainability from the ground up. Starting
with how we orient the building on the site, locate different functions
within the building, to specifying the types of finish for the floors
and walls, we incorporate sustainablity into every step.
For more information regarding sustainable buildings, please refer to our Sustainability section.
