smartFARM
Organic food produced using sustainable methods. The smartFARM is aimed at designing an organic farm that is both water and energy neutral. It will influence policy and outline a new blueprint for the production and consumption of food, energy, and water.
Low Impact Development
Site development and engineering design to manage stormwater, emphasizing conservation and use of on-site natural features to protect water quality.
Sustainable Transportation
Solutions to provide environmentally responsible mobility to facilitate the needs of our state and nation.
Green Buildings
New concepts for buildings that enable our societal needs while minimizing our use of resources. Design that utilizes, rather than battles climatic forces. Clean technologies that enable renewable and safe energy and materials.
The ISD will serve as a resource for architecture, engineering and construction firms throughout the country, as well as well as for building regulatory organizations.
Value of partnering
The Institute for Sustainable Design brings together faculty, undergraduate and graduate students, design professionals, manufacturers, and suppliers in a stimulating, interactive environment that will serve as a model for how academia and industry can solve societal problems of sustainability.
