We provide comprehensive civil and site-plan design services such as parking plans and utility designs.
Because a building's architecture conveys not only the purpose of the building but reflects the taste and knowledge of the owners and the architect, we make sure be holistic when considering work site conditions, aesthetic appeal, budget and the client's needs and wants.
Mechanical systems implemented in both commercial and residential buildings must optimize existing structure and nearby natural resources in order to provide more efficient heating and cooling systems. We are able integrate various natural resources into our designs such as solar energy, geothermal energy, river and rain water, and wind energy.
We are able to utilize solar energy in both passive and active forms, therefore ensuring that our building designs maximize daylight while minimizing both heating and cooling load.
In our designs, we value the optimization of energy use in order to reduce electrical loads in the building and to keep running costs low.
When designing or considering green buildings composed of different structural materials such as insulated concrete form (ICF) or high selective glass, we will handle things like hurricane resistance, environmental compatibility, and air quality control.
We highly value innovation and flexibility. As such, we are experienced with various materials such as concrete, steel, wood, and insulated concrete forms. The proper structural system depends on the project's budget and the type of project.
We offer short classes for engineers, architects, and contractors interested in green building design and integrations of optimal energy systems for residential and commercial buildings.
