Environmental mission and strategy (ESG)
This is a sole practice based on providing environmentally sensitive architectural services for residential and small commercial projects. Projects to this date include residences, one of which has been part of the D.C. area Solar Homes Tour for the past several years, a beach house, additions (two in historic districts), and many renovation projects. Most projects have involved some aspect of sustainable solutions to the design.
