This project incorporated two Green/Sustainable concepts into
the design and construction:
- Underfloor Air Delivery: The underfloor air delivery
system is designed so that floors two thru five are constructed
with an 18"- raised floor that serves as supply air plenum.
Swirl diffusers set in raised floor tiles can be located anywhere
for adjustable
floor diffusion.
- Sunscreens and light shades: Unique system of exterior
sunscreens and interior light shades on the south and west exposure
of the building. Sunscreens and shades serve to reduce solar
heat within the building thus reducing cooling costs as well
as reducing the use of artificial lighting.
