Green Building in Dallas-Fort Worth

The goal of a green builder should be to construct a high performance home or a building that is 1) Energy-Efficient; 2) Healthy; 3) Comfortable; 4) Affordable; 5) Durable; 6) Resource Responsible; 7) Sustainable. It should help you achieve your own personal energy freedom.

Green Building is many things. It a science and it is a passion. Green Building allows people to be safe, comfortable, healthy and environmentally responsible in their own homes, schools, and/or work places.  Unfortunately, green building in DFW is sometimes brown.

Green Building is a complicated subject involving many different systems. This is a work in progress. We will cover a new aspect of green building often. If you would like this information by email, please join our list here.  

Keep in mind that proper green and energy-efficient building techniques vary for different climates. This website is only for the Dallas-Fort Worth (North Central Texas) area.

Renewable Energy in DFW

City of Dallas Goes Green

When we build, let us think that we build forever. Let it not be for present delight nor for present use alone. Let it be such work as our descendents will thank us for; and let us think, as we lay stone on stone, that a time is to come when those stones will be held sacred because our hands have touched them, and that men will say, as they look upon the labor and wrought substance of them, "See! This our father did for us."
   John Ruskin
