Project Details

Digging Deeper

“We actually came in and added to the goal setting.”

“The design process was much more integrated and each person had to step outside of their specialized role to make the project a success.”

“Our involvement at that point was much higher than usual on most projects, and the best early collaborative design that I’ve seen on green projects.”

“We went back and forth and it was a very open and cooperative arrangement. We never felt that he was telling us, you have to do this.”

“It was probably the greatest asset that we all knew each other and [got] along really well.”

1 Collaboration fuels goal setting & decision making

“Our job is to really make sure that, from the very beginning, clients understand what the give and take will be to deliver a more sustainable building.”

“We never want to force something that’s innovative, risky, or challenging on the client.”

“They were open minded to test new ideas”

“When you make good projects, you can only go as far as your clients are willing to go.”

2 Innovation requires client buy-in

“The energy use, particularly the carbon component of that energy, was very important for me.”

“It dovetailed into what LEED was at the time.”

“It certainly made us more willing to invest more time for the energy modeling because we expected to get some money back.”

“Incentives helped the owner look at some of the things they normally wouldn’t have looked at.”

“The project was such a small scale that the incentives…are not worth our time to fill out.”

3 Mandates and incentives influence, but do not drive, decision-making
