presented by:
The Basic Premise
• Sustainable design has been shrouded in a veil of mystery. Many design professionals believe that either a building is sustainable or its not, an all or nothing condition. The reality is that every project can be better, greener, and more sustainable with some care and attention to detail.

Sustainable Design
in a Practical
World
• WHAT IS THE COMMON DENOMINATOR ?• Site/Transportation
– Run Off– Shading– Educational Display
• Water– Irrigation
• Energy• Materials
– Waste Reduction– Rapidly Renewable
• Indoor Environment– Day lighting– Quality Electric Lighting– Ventilation– Thermal Comfort Controls
Sustainable Design
in a Practical
World
• Under Appreciated Elements of Sustainable Design
– Durability– Flexibility
Regenerative Design
• Can we design a project that goes beyond low environmental impact to giving more back to the environment than it takes?
• Cradle to Cradle
