ARCHILETTERS

Sustainable architecture and landscape design are taking giant steps forward at Phipps with the new Center for Sustainable Landscapes: an innovative model of sustainability for architects, scientists, planners and anyone interested in greener living. In generating all of its own energy, and treating and reusing all of water captured on site, this dynamic education, research and administration facility is expected to operate as efficiently as a flower. And, designed and built by Pennsylvanians to meet or exceed the world’s three highest green standards—the Living Building Challenge, LEED® Platinum and Sustainable Sites Initiative SITES™ certification for landscapes—this addition is now part of our guest experience.
