PLACE

SUSTAIN ABILITY

Our green roofs include farm to table urban roof gardens, extensive and intensive vegetated roofs.

TVS has helped clients benefit from many aspects of sustainable design since the firm’s inception in 1968. Our staff of LEED and WELL Accredited Professionals works to find a balance of social, environmental and economic factors in our projects drawing from our experience in LEED Platinum and WELL certified projects. As a leader in the integration of sustainable practices with client satisfaction and design innovation, TVS has the capacity to develop any project according to the client’s desired level of environmental responsibility. With over 57 LEED Certified projects we’ve received countless awards for creating remarkable designs for our clients and communities.

ENERGY

We have pursued the Living Building Challenge 4.0 on several projects at a conceptual level, but those projects did not continue with the program.

WATER We use climate responsive passive design strategies to reduce water demand on our projects.

We use passive design strategies to reduce energy demand on our projects.

HEALTH + HAPPINESS Our designs promote healthy habits.

MATERIALS We specify low carbon materials.

EQUITY Work with client to develop equitable access to, and protections from negative impacts.

BEAUTY Design to include elements that nurture the innate human/nature connection.

TVS was recognized by United States Green Building Council (USGBC) and the International Well Building Institute (IWBI) as the first organization ever to achieve both LEED and WELL Platinum through a streamlined, dual track. This path encourages and simplifies the process for both certifications and for TVS to have achieved the highest level of both standards speaks to the firm’s commitment to embracing human and planetary health.

The design team’s focus wasn’t necessarily to pursue points to certification. It was to do the best job possible across all aspects of the projects , given very challenging budgetary and time constraints.

When considering design options, the team weighed them for their near- and long-term impact on the firm’s collective wellbeing – what solution would be the most equitable, provide the best environment to do good work, use resources most effectively and sustainably?

Ultimately, these certifications were achieved through initiatives like: - Reuse of 60% of furniture plus ceiling systems and lighting - A scrappy, DIY sensibility – in house 3D printed signage - Carbon negative and recycled materials - Daylighting studies - Connection to nature via terrace - Biophilia As the team approached the end of the project it became clear that, with a small push, they could meet the Platinum requirements for LEED and WELL. The new streamlined process made that possible and this new approach is strongly recommended.

FROM CLASSROOMS TO COMMUNITY, DESIGNING FOR LEARNING AND BEYOND. We design spaces with the intention to inspire and encourage people to become the best they can be. An innovative and successful educational setting allows for life and learning to exist in a symbiotic relationship that aligns students, faculty and the overall goals of the institution. Respecting existing traditions, yet understanding the need for adaptable and sustainable solutions, our team creates the context for memorable learning experiences.

We believe in a holistic campus approach, realizing the potential of every aspect to nurture a climate for educational success by stimulating imaginations.
