≈ Comments Off on Radford University’s COBE Receives LEED Gold Certification

COBE_LEEDgold

Glavé & Holmes Architecture (G&HA) is pleased to announce that Radford University’s College of Business and Economics (COBE) has achieved LEED Gold Certification, the first new construction building on campus to earn this designation.

Designed with long-term use and sustainability in mind, Radford’s COBE facility boasts a two-story atrium and large assembly space, as well as state-of-the-art technology throughout the building’s classrooms and collaborative environments. Since the project’s completion in 2012, COBE has become not only a gateway to the campus, but also a “signature” building for the University.

LEED is a voluntary program that provides verification of green buildings by the U.S. Green Building Council. The LEED rating system is comprised of a number of credit categories, including sustainable sites, water efficiency, energy and atmosphere, material and resources, indoor environment quality and innovation and design process. Sustainable features of the building’s design include green roofs and ice storage HVAC system. This LEED Gold designation further exemplifies G&HA’s commitment to sustainable and forward-thinking design.

“Obtaining LEED Gold on COBE is a wonderful achievement for Radford University,” said RU Capital Project Manager Paul Ely. “This accomplishment took the collective efforts of RU, the architects, engineers and contractors. The LEED team was fueled by RU’s persistence to ‘go for gold.’ It is refreshing to be a part of a campus which chooses to lead by example.”

To learn more about the project and its LEED status, visit Radford University’s website.

≈ Comments Off on Robert H. Smith Center at Montalto Wins AIA Virginia Award

The Robert H. Smith Center at Montalto received an Award of Merit in the Historic Preservation Category from the Virginia Society AIA. Overlooking Monticello, on the adjacent hill known as Montalto, the Repose house was built c. 1903 for a Philadelphia land baron, J. A. Patterson. The current rehabilitation of the house creates a world-class extension of the Robert H. Smith International Center for Jefferson Studies. Repose has been adapted and expanded to provide for multiple new functions as a meeting space, teleconferencing center, facility for visiting dignitaries and event space. This new facility has become the “upper campus” for the Thomas Jefferson Foundation property.
