SUSTAINABLE DESIGN

From the start of the practice, Sparano + Mooney Architecture has focused on creating innovative and modern sustainable design solutions for our extraordinary clients. As experts in sustainability in architecture, we offer clients an integrated set of green design services including: sustainable design guidelines and audits; sustainable project planning; passive design and LEED consulting services; and LEED-certified architecture.

Because we produce architecture within some of the most spectacular natural landscapes in the region, our practice is focused on projects that exert a low impact on the existing site in order to minimize waste and resource use. Our clients consider sustainable design a triple win: green design is good for people, good for business and good for the environment. With sustainability as a guiding principle for the work, we approach every assignment as an opportunity to enhance building, environmental and occupant performance through sustainable design strategies.

Our team seeks to develop the architectural potential of each project while ensuring occupants are comfortable and inspired, contractors are building efficiently and responsibly, and owners realize lower first capital and operating costs. Our LEED-accredited professional team brings an integrated sustainable design approach to each project. The resultant architecture is grounded in timeless design principles inspired by nature, including passive design, optimal solar orientation, incorporating day-lighting and natural ventilation, the harmonious relationship between building and site, and green materials and finishes.
