It has thoughtfully designed spaces that are smart and functional. It is healthy, comfortable and filled with natural light it feels good, improves people’s well-being and allows them to thrive. Yet a truly successful building-one that's loved and stands the test of time-transcends efficiency. After all, elements of a building are only as efficient as the larger systems they comprise. When focusing on efficiency, it's important not to get blinded by isolated components and neglect the ultimate goal of optimizing the entire system-from the building to the site, community and beyond. Super-efficient buildings are critical to ensuring we hand off a planet ready to embrace and sustain future generations. Our BIG BOLD goal is to demonstrate use of creativity and technology to solve a significant industry challenge. This foundational work informs and strengthens our work in program development, policy support, knowledge and technology transfer, allowing us to scale solutions and accelerate impact. The foundation of our work in building consulting, research and education provides us hands-on experience and unique insights to allow us to understand the real hurdles faced by stakeholders in creating great projects. Strategyīeyond Efficiency is a nexus for ideas, innovation, knowledge and partnerships in the sustainable building industry.

Beyond Efficiency empowers people to create enduring human-centered buildings. Our vision is a world where everyone lives, learns, works and plays in a built environment that nurtures human potential and secures ecological health.
