  • Green Building Consulting

    Not every green project seeks LEED certification. However, increasingly, more and more developers and governments are seeking to enhance the environmental responsiveness of their developments. We have a diverse team of experts capable of providing custom consulting to all types of projects.

  • Green Building Funding Research

    Increasingly governments and NGO’s are introducing incentive funds to encourage more green development. We are aware of these funds and can help you get “free money” for your green developments.

  • Green Building Product Consulting

    We combine our knowledge of green design and of green building markets to assess the viability of your new green building products. We also can assist you to find the right distribution channels for your green building products.

    Many of us are educators already and we are committed to advancing knowledge in the building industry. We offer LEED and green building presentations, seminars, and workshops both for in-house customized programs as well as public programs.

    We coordinate and facilitate integrated design sessions within design teams to ensure sustainable synergies can be found and that design strategies are aligned with project goals.

  • Marketing Green Buildings

    Real estate marketers are only now learning about LEED and green buildings, yet there is an increasing demand by consumers, companies and governments to reside in green buildings. How can your development reach those customers, what are their demographics, and what messages do they respond to? We can help you with the answers to those questions.

  • Strategic Community Planning & Facilitation

    We can help (with our partners) facilitate discussions with the appropriate stakeholders and to devise strategic methods such as incentives, code changes, and proactive land use to encourage more sustainable development within your community.

    Eco-charrettes are an emerging forum to bring various stakeholders together, particularly with design teams, to help advance the sustainable designs of buildings and neighbourhoods.

  • Feasibility Studies

    Prior to embarking on a project seeking LEED, we can provide a cost-effective study of the likelihood of LEED certification given established project parameters.
