Wright & Dalbin Architects, Inc.

Philosophy

Integrated Project Delivery

Coordinated effort is the quickest and best solution to design problems. It takes a lot of specialized skill sets to erect a building. Civil, mechanical, electrical, and structural engineers, landscape designers, general contractor, and a passel of subs. Wright & Dalbin synthesizes the various disciplines, acting as a coordinator, conductor, a conduit for information and occasionally a referee.

Integrated Project Delivery is a Best Practice endorsed by the American Institute of Architects. Integrated Project Delivery breaks down the silos that segregate the architects from the engineers, and the planners from the builders. Instead of tackling the project with discrete solitary efforts, Integrated Project Delivery bridges and unites the various required disciplines, making a team instead from a group of individual players.

LEED vs. Green Globes

Green building certification programs are third party independent verification systems to assure that buildings meet stringent standards for sustainability and the environment. These standards guarantee that buildings represent little embodied energy expenses, and will consume less energy over their life span. Because green buildings are built with better envelopes, that is, the structural elements that keep the inside in and the outside out, green building certification programs also usually include provisions for indoor air quality.
