Summary
Evans Construction built the shell of this medical office building complex, and one of the first tenants were Drs. White & Thweatt. Working through a design/build process, Evans secured architects Cox & Associates and worked to build a plan that would incorporate ‘green’ building design while creating a spa-like, comfortable experience for their dental patients.
The owners were intent to utilize building materials and construction concepts that would provide for the best energy savings, utilize recycled content, reduce landfill waste, and improve the air quality of the office. These sustainable design elements included:
- Bamboo Flooring
- Recycled Carpet
- Paperstone Countertops
- Sealed Concrete
- Low-VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) Paint
- Solatube Lighting
- Strategic HVAC and Plumbing layout
- Energy Star Appliances
