Clean House is Clean Living
Green
Energy
Maximizing efficiency through insulation, air sealing, windows and HVAC systems, and renewable generation techniques.
Sustainable
Materials
Matching the least environmental impact and the greatest longevity to reduce fuel consumption, energy costs, and pollution.
High
Performance
Building envelopes can provide a tighter seal that keeps conditioned air in while filtering out pollutants like dust, pollen and mold spores.
With so many advances in green building technology, it's time to consider sustainability when it comes to homebuilding. As consumers, we must become more aware of the health impacts and environmental damage caused by traditional construction practices.
About the Echo Method.
What our clients are saying
We had interviewed a second architect and had a nice discussion, but she never got back to me... never called me back. What I really wanted was a draftsman, to put our house on blueprints, I really didn't know how much I needed an architect, he changed everything all for good. Dugan took our floor plan and made it incredible. The new house is BETTER than our millionaire dream house thanks to Dugan.
In hiring an architect I look for someone who is easy to work with, responsive, keeps me up to date, and doesn't price gouge... ACVN met all of that criteria. Working with Dugan is smooth and comfortable, and the price is comparable to other architects that I interviewed.
"Looks like we got the first step correct. Met with Dugan and couldn't be more pleased with his ability to listen to our desires and add his thoughts. I really feel like we are heading into the winner's circle. We're still in the beginning stages.
We are planning an addition to welcome the newest member to our family, we need more bedrooms. I will update you along our journey of making sound decisions."
