Staying Current With Green Building Practices

 

The role of your Mountain Architects designer is to provide you with a log or timber home design that fits all of your needs and desires. In order to meet you green building goals, each of our Mountain Architects designers has gone through rigorous training from the US Green Building Certification Institute. Feel confident that your designer will provide you with the best green building consultation and results.

 

Accreditation

LEED Accredited Professionals (LEED APs) are design professionals who have demonstrated a complete understanding of green building and the LEED® Green Building Rating System™. Each of Mountain Architects' designers is studying to achieve their LEED AP credential. This knowledge will benefit all of our clients, no matter their "shade of green."

 

Memberships

Membership in national organizations which are dedicated to green building research and technology enable PrecisionCraft and Mountain Architects with access to the most up-to-date information in the industry. We are ENERGY STAR partners and members of the US Green Building Council.

 

Using these affiliations we have been able educate ourselves and connect with other industry experts who have broadened our knowledge base. As a result we are able to successfully guide our clients in achieving their green building goals. Our first client to request LEED® For Homes certification is located in Government Camp, Oregon and hopes to attain Gold status.
