Sustainable Design is an ever evolving path, complex and dynamic. We enter a project with no preconceived notions, focusing on the content of the problem, leading towards the responsible solution. With over 100 years of architectural, engineering and interior design experience, Baskervill navigates sustainability as a multi-stranded helix to put you and your space at its optimal goal.
Baskervill Environmental and Energy Practices (BEEP) is focused on leading our clients through a building process that benefits the environment and the occupants while maximizing available financial incentives. With over 20 LEED APs and multiple BEEP liaisons embedded within each studio, sustainability is integrated into each project.
We feel no two projects are the same. Neither is our approach to each client.
Below is a sampling of the ways the BEEP team collaborates within the firm.
