Green Architecture

Re:Vision’s architecture studio is motivated by sustainable building design that has a positive impact on individuals, communities, and ecosystems.  In our work, we seek to provide more (health, equity, connection, beauty) and use less (energy, water, toxicity, capital, maintenance).

The challenge of authentic sustainability inspires us to combine climate-responsive, biophilic design strategies that have evolved over thousands of years with the latest materials, methods, and technologies.
