Check out this feature of our Director of Building Science, Andrea Love, in the AIA Architect Column, AIA Voices. Andrea discussed her work here at Payette and her underlying philosophy that architecture is both an art and a science. Her comments focus on the role of the 2030 Commitment in changing the practice of architecture. Additionally, Andrea’s comments mention Payette’s growing firm-wide energy literacy, which pushes us to discuss the role of sustainability on all our projects.

Where are you on the road to the 2030 Commitment?
Located along Boston’s famed Emerald Necklace designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, the Klarman Building responds to the presence of this green space to create a state-of-the-art center for inpatient care and healing. In addition to extending aspects of nature into the building through orienting views and finishes, the Sky Garden allows patients, family and staff to find healing in the landscape.
Happy World Landscape Month!
