Sustainability > Philosophy





  Environmentally conscious design isn't a strategy that we occasionally
  pull off the shelf; it's central to our culture and simply just the way
  we do business.

  Green building practices drive our design philosophy and we work with
  every one of our clients to design facilities that minimize energy and water
  use, increase occupant health and productivity, and lessen a building's impact
  on the environment.

  It's really about a customized, intelligent design plan infused with sustainable design
  principles. Ideal options are those that maximize building performance for the user
  and meet owner objectives, while minimizing the environmental impact.

  Our LEED Accredited Professionals offer in-depth knowledge of green building
  practices, the LEED green building rating systems, and the certification process. They
  lead the way in the design of buildings that utilize recycled materials, tap renewable
  energies, and function in harmony with our environment; while continuing to use time tested
  technologies and building systems. View our LEED projects.

  Durrant also knows it's important to demonstrate the real, tangible return on your sustainable design
  investment. We make sure you have a full understanding of payback periods, environmental impact and
  operational savings long before you initial the final drawings.

  Sustainable design is more than a global responsibility; it's the kind of common sense that permeates
  everything we do and promotes progress.

  Progress, by design.
