During The Design Process We Will

• Perform a site analysis to assess existing site conditions and to identify site resources and liabilities
   

• Inform our clients about the benefits of sustainable practices
   

• Select native or climate-adapted plants
   

• Incorporate stormwater retention through the use of bioswales and rain gardens
   

• Analyze sun/shade patterns and possibilities for cooling of the home by providing shade
   

• Minimize lawn areas and, when necessary for aesthetic purposes, specify the use of low water turf
   

• Suggest sustainable materials for construction
