hMa and environmental design:
hanrahanMeyers architects are committed to Environmental or ‘Green’ Design. In 1987 hMa designed their first public building that gave the firm national recognition as architects with their winning design for the Chattanooga Nature Interpretive Center. hMa’s Interpretive Center was a forward thinking Green building featuring a solar panel as the building entrance canopy, in addition to other sustainable features. HMa gives 2 % of the firm’s income to Nature conservation groups every year as an offset to the impact of the firm’s construction projects. hMa currently are architects for a Platinum LEED Community Center at Battery Park City, with construction planned for 2008.
hMa implements their own proprietary Green specifications that apply to all hMa projects including: recycled content GWB; use of low VOC paint; and use of high efficiency, energy star rated equipment. hMa has experience from their role as master plan architects overseeing Green guidelines for Battery Park City Residential Developments since 2000. In 2005 hMa were hired as architects for the new Platinum LEED Community Center for Battery Park City’s North Neighborhood development. hMa has established relationships with firms around the world who are on the cutting-edge of green technologies.
hMa’s philosophy of design with a connection to Nature is displayed boldly here on hanrahanMeyers.com. hMa specializes in Nature based design that incorporates Green and sustainable technologies and materials. The tagline on hMa’s website, ‘design is a frame to Nature’, reflects our commitment to Green and sustainable design.
