Sustainable Design
Sustainability for M+NLB is all about understanding the resource needs of a facility and then minimizing consumption, maximizing utilization, and reducing waste.
We have been designing energy-efficient buildings for almost 50 years. As sustainable design has moved into the forefront of responsible building technology, so has our reputation as sustainable design experts with recognized projects across the country. M+NLB has participated in over 20 LEED projects, eight of which are certified Gold. In addition, 30 percent of our staff is LEED Accredited.
Our portfolio also includes a research component focusing on alternative energy reduction strategies, including the use of displacement and natural ventilation strategies in healthcare facilities, as well as the reduction of energy use in data centers, and our work with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory to develop a benchmarking protocol for testing hospital system efficiencies for the California Energy Commission.
