It is too bad that not all clients can afford to apply for the LEED certification. But it is great that as a LEED AP we are able to guide our clients on making the right decisions when it comes to design and construction. Check our out the house we designed for Habitat for Humanity at http://dtarchitects.blogspot.com/search/label/Affordably%20Platinum. Thanks for the inspiration. Thank You, Staci A. Meyers, ASID, LEED AP NCIDQ Certificate No.021086 Interior Design Team

Building green,using energy efficient practices such as windows and insulation and increasing sustainability is a fantastic trend that we hope continues and hopefully architects and builders alike begin to use the LEED system as a point of pride and continue to incorporate beautiful design with sustainable resources.
