sustainabILITY

"Meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."

JSA has extensive involvement in LEED projects dating back to 2001 and has embraced sustainability as a core design philosophy. This company-wide mindset is highlighted by active participation as LEED Accredited Professionals by all Principals and the majority of the design staff. JSA regularly incorporates sustainable design features into projects, benefiting building owners and occupants alike. The result of the increased life-cycle awareness is more comfortable buildings with lower energy consumption.

JSA maintains an innovative design approach through ongoing education of its staff and industry participation. Our commitment to responsible designs applies regardless of the size or complexity of the project.
