Green - The New Color of Luxury

Here’s a partial list of Green Building practices we currently employ.

• We recycle nearly 75% of our construction waste through our partner, City Wide Recycling.
• We use the best insulation available, including spray-foam and other new products, to minimize energy use.
• We utilize cementitious siding and wall shingles, which are made in part with recycled materials.
• We specify high-efficiency furnaces and boiler systems, and use zones to control energy use.
• Our designs maximize use of natural light, which reduces energy costs for artificial lighting.
• We specify low-voltage lighting, which uses less energy and still retains a high light quality.
• Depending on the design, we use stainless steel or concrete countertops, which can be recycled or re-used.
• We specify energy-saving setback programmable thermostats.
• We use reclaimed materials like brick or wood timbers as each design allows.
• We use engineered wood products, which are more sustainable and do not require the harvesting of long-growth cycle trees.
• We use fast-growing, sustainable woods like Birch, Poplar, and Pine wherever possible.
