Built Environments
A building science research firm with a special focus on resilient enclosure systems.
We help you innovate, design and build in ways that truly revolutionize the industry.
Focused on the single goal of improved building performance
We are more than just architects and consultants. We are innovators at the industry’s leading edge – whole building thinkers and authorities of the building enclosure. Our talent represents a fusion of intelligent design, keen analytical ability, and solid, boots-on-the-ground experience.
Design Services
Feasibility & Scoping Studies
Architectural Forensics
Thermal Modeling
Researchers and Collaborators
We are a straight-talking, results-driven
research firm committed to developing
the best products enclosure
systems
in the industry. And we deliver.
We study the building enclosure – that portion of the building that separates the exterior environment from the interior environment. We study how air, moisture, and heat move through the enclosure and how these factors affect the performance and durability of the built environment.
Our practice is centered around three overlapping pursuits: Research & Development, Computational Analysis, and Enclosure Consulting.
We work with manufacturers, design & engineering firms, contractors, and trade organizations. Our straightforward, fast-track approach ensures our clients get results that impact their bottom line while protecting their reputations. We deliver only great work. No compromises.
What We Do...
Computational Analysis
Explore the power of prediction with advanced simulation techniques.
“In our industry it’s not so much what you know, but rather it’s how you think. And we think differently.”
We Think Differently
Each day, we ask the question, “What if?”. We dare convention. We strive for bold ideas. We offer objective thought.
Lightening in a bottle – achieving the seemingly impossible. That’s our challenge. To do this, we have to think outside the box. This often involves dismantling an original idea and rebuilding it around a new one. Our framework is resilience, redundancy, and a healthy respect for the unexpected environment.
At the core of our practice is the belief that products and assemblies must perform beyond the status quo. Standards and criteria mean nothing if the bar is set too low. So, we raise the bar.”
We live our projects. They become part of us. We embrace the most difficult, the messiest, the orphaned. And from this chaos emerges elegant ideas, highly evolved products, and resilient enclosure systems.
