Green Building

Sustainability or "Green Building" is becoming more prevalent in today's architectural design and development. Societal and governmental concern for the environment and energy conservation is driving this movement and once again, KAS is on the cutting edge.

KAS designed Fire Station No. 7 for the city of Denton, TX which earned Gold LEED Certification from the US Green Building Council, and is the first fire station in Texas to achieve this distinction. It is only the second such fire station in the USA.

Kirkpatrick Architecture Studio is currently working with the City of Norman, Oklahoma on Fire Station No. 8, which is pursuing Silver LEED Certification.

We are members of the USGBC and the North Texas Chapter of the USGBC.
