NASA’s Mission to Earth

NASA Ames sustainability base

Anyone interested in high-performance, green buildings simply has to check out NASA’s new “sustainability base” at their Ames campus in California. The below article gives Bill McDonough all the credit because, well, he loves taking all the credit, but this facility represents a real achievement in integrated design across all trades. As Forbes correctly points out, they spared no expense and overlooked no detail. I will be very interested to see if the performance data and occupant satisfaction in the new facility live up to all the hype.
