Local sourcing of finish materials, energy efficient lighting, and specification of recycled materials are just a few of the sustainable strategies Davis Wince brings to every retail design solution.
While LEED® practices provide our industry with benchmarks and measurement standards in sustainable design, existing shell conditions, limited-scope renovation, and project costs remain obstacles in achieving LEED® certification for some projects.
Davis Wince continually investigates new green technologies, and incorporates them into our projects. We educate our clients in sustainable practices throughout the design process, and produce green architecture by design. Defining your brand solution through sustainability in mind is an increasingly important part of the retail puzzle.
