Integrated Environmental Architecture

Bronx River House. Double layer living facade creates a favorable microclimate around the building. Integrated PV/roof monitors for ≈net-zero energy. Standing column geothermal wells. Rainwater harvesting and storage for irrigation including irrigated facades. Deciduous vines on the outer screen wall, and mosses and planter pockets on the inner building facade function like the horizontal layers of a forest to temper and purify the air.

Buildings and infrastructure that create positive value in every sense: economic, environmental, and social.

Bushwick Inlet Park, Williamsburg, Brooklyn - irrigated green roof covers the building including geothermal wells and rainwater storage.

Buildings as environmental solutions.
