The integration of sustainable design practices offers the opportunity to create environmentally friendly and resource efficient buildings using an integrated design approach. Sustainable building involves a wide range of practices and techniques that reduce or eliminate the impacts of buildings on the environment and on human health. LEED and sustainable design concepts are extremely important considerations in the design of all buildings, including parking facilities.
TimHaahs is dedicated to utilizing sustainable design practices in all of our designs. We work with our clients to implement best practices in sustainability and ‘green building’ techniques for the design of garage and mixed-use facilities. Currently over twenty five percent of TimHaahs staff are LEED Accredited Professionals, with many more actively pursuing LEED Green Associate designations. Our firm recognizes the significant impact of sustainable design and LEED on the A/E/C industry and uses both Smart Growth and LEED to develop environmentally responsible buildings. TimHaahs is a dedicated United States Green Building Council (USGBC) member, and is currently working on a number of projects pursuing LEED certification.
