Approach to Sustainability
Designing resource-efficient buildings has been an integral facet of our firm since our inception. With LEED Accredited Professionals accounting for more than half of our staff, Chamberlin Architects is a proven leader in energy-efficient design.
The U.S. Green Building Council has awarded a LEED Gold rating to four of our projects, and we have two more anticipated LEED Gold projects under construction. We typically use a sustainability checklist to identify green building systems and features even when a project is not seeking formal certification.
We think creatively to identify ways to achieve the maximum efficiency with the least cost. Starting with the understanding that the buildings we design are going to be used for decades, we specify materials and systems that will be efficient, durable and maintainable far into the future.
