Building green means designing efficient and non-wasteful integrated systems that eliminate as much negative environmental impact as possible. When we approach a project with this goal in mind, we’ve found that simply spending a little extra time to think things through on the front end goes a long way. It does not have to mean spending more money on state-of-the-art products (though there is a lot of cool stuff out there we’d be happy to share with you) – it really starts with common sense.
