A Methodology for Green Building.

We believe that every building should be a green building.

In the future, we won't even use the term anymore. Green Building will simply be the way it is. This is inevitable. To that end, we spend a considerable portion of our efforts on researching how to make this future possible. This research finds its way into our design projects, our consulting work, and into Eric's presentations, and helps shape the next generation of sustainability and green building.

Due to time constraints, we are very selective in the types of projects we research. Our work focuses on four primary types of buildings:

Our Project Types
  • Residential
  • Commercial
  • Hospitality
  • Educational

Residential will always be our first love. There is nothing more personal, fun and rewarding than designing a unique home for nice people. Our roots with residential projects go so far back, that even Eric's final thesis project in school was an organic house!


Over the years and after hundreds of homes, we have developed a special process for uncovering the needs of our clients. Based on the interview style of Frank Lloyd Wright, this process finds how you really want to live in the home and pulls out new design ideas from your own personalities. The results produce something new and wholly untraditional, yet perfectly suited to your needs. Schedule a time to meet with Eric and discuss your new home and you'll see why he prizes houses as his favorite projects.


Our research into green residential has produced three books and countless articles. Best of all, we know exactly which systems, finishes and methods will save you money and bring beauty to your home. We can even work your current architect to advise on the best ways to incorporate sustainability into your project.


Our Areas of Particular Experience
  • Pre-Fabrication
  • Biomimicry
  • Urban Redevelopment

At first glance, pre-fabricated (or "prefab) structures make a lot of sense. They offer faster construction times, higher quality and an economy of scale. The range of prefab buildings runs from modular wall panels up to fully realized buildings that arrive on the site nearly complete.


The potential for prefab structures to offer low-cost green buildings is enormous, but the reality hasn't quote gotten there yet. In our work, we have been using modular materials and prefab construction methods in everyday projects. Eric even wrote some chapters about it in his books. Use our experience to help you apply prefab methods into your large scale projects. Contact us or schedule a time to meet with Eric to discuss how we can help.
