ARCHI T E C T S SUSTAINABLE DESIGN DESIGN OF SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGS A majority of CNH Architects’ architectural and intern staff are LEED Accredited Professionals and designed the first two projects in Minnesota to be awarded a Green Globe certification. Wayne Hilbert is a principal with CNH Architects and one of the first architects LEED accredited and the first architect to receive certification as a Green Globe Professional in Minnesota. CNH Architects, along with our design team, evaluate and develop sustainable strategies with our clients. We are familiar with a variety of rating systems and have incorporated multiple sustainable and high-performance strategies in our projects. These projects not only highlight our energy strategies, but also include multiple approaches to: Performance Management Site and Water Energy and Atmosphere Indoor Environment Quality Materials and Waste ROSEVILLE FIRE STATION With an existing Ice Arena on the city campus, the new Roseville Fire Station took advantage of the economies and included the development of a campus geothermal loop system. The piping loop harvests excess heat created in the process of freezing the ice sheet and distributes this heat through the city campus to the new fire station building. This first phase of the campus geothermal loop provides sufficient energy to fully heat the entire fire station building for only the cost of circulating the fluid in the loop piping, with capacity to spare for other city buildings on the campus. APPLE VALLEY LIQUOR STORE #3 Completed in 2008, this project was the first project in Minnesota to receive a Green Globe certification. The Green Building Initiative recognized this project with a “Two Globe” rating, and the building is also Energy Star certified. Using a highly efficient geothermal heat pump system and ventilation exchange allows this building to greatly reduce energy usage. The beer coolers are also integrated into the geothermal system. APPLE VALLEY CITY HALL Using both Minnesota Sustainable Design Guide and LEED as outlines for design, this project incorporates multiple sustainable strategies. It is listed on the Minnesota Office of Environmental Assistance website as an example of green architecture. It has also been published in American City and County Magazine and The National League of Cities for its sustainable strategies. APPLE VALLEY SENIOR CENTER - APPLE VALLEY, MN Completed in 2009, this project was awarded Two Globes under the Green Globe rating system. This facility uses a combination of daylight harvesting, heat pumps, ventilation air exchange and in-floor radiant heating to provide comfort and reduce energy consumption. VALLEYWOOD CLUBHOUSE - APPLE VALLEY, MN First facility in Minnesota to earn Three Green Globes for new construction. Overlooking the 18th hole, this building combines energy efficiency with a contemporary design to create a very successful event venue.
