The 2004 Energy Efficiency Integration Awards (EEIA) Winners
For their integration of energy efficiency with outstanding architectural design, three nonresidential projects have received Awards of Honor as the culmination of the 2004 Savings By Design Energy Efficiency Integration Awards Competition.
“This year’s winning projects truly advance the edge of the energy-efficient design practice,” commented Grant Duhon, Savings By Design Senior Program Manager at Pacific Gas and Electric. “They not only provide beautiful building forms and conserve energy resources, but also serve as community centers that inspire, educate, and celebrate the cultures that provide their context.”
The jurors cited the projects’ masterful use of design to overcome constrained sites and orientation and seamlessly integrate energy efficiency into elegant building design.
