Sustainable Design

-Draper Aden Associates’ sustainable design philosophy encompasses cost-saving solutions that respect and enhance the existing environment. Our thorough documentation ensures that projects achieve the specific level of LEED® certification desired.

From feasibility studies, to identifying LEED® options, to the planning for an entire sustainable campus, we have the expertise and commitment to meet the “green design” needs of our governmental, industrial, and commercial clients. Our approach to developing a multi-discipline plan for sustainability begins at the onset of a project and involves a collaborative effort between the entire design team and the owner. The overall goal is to create cost-effective solutions for practical sustainable measures that meet building codes and regulatory requirements.

Our structural design team utilizes sustainable design options that include recycled materials, structural insulated panels, laminated lumber, and light gauge steel to minimize construction costs, expedite construction schedules, and reduce the use of natural resources for construction projects.
