What are Green Buildings?
Green, or Sustainable buildings use key resources like energy, water, materials, and land more efficiently than buildings that are just built to code. With more natural light and better air quality, green buildings typically contribute to improved occupant health, comfort, and productivity. The United States Green Building Council (USGBC), a national non-profit membership organization, developed the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) System to provide a guideline and rating system for green buildings. Scull Construction is proud to have a number of individuals certified and dedicated to responsible and sustainable building best practices.
