Global Green

As one of six firms selected through a global competition, the challenge faced by the Global Green design was to create a sustainable, carbon neutral, mixed-use development for the storm ravaged Holy Cross District of New Orleans. The solution was to integrate residential, commercial and institutional programs that would prove to be socially and economically viable. The key to the design process was the thoughtful consideration and utilization of proven building design characteristics that are evidenced in the unique architectural heritage of the region.
