01 — Services

Coordinated MEP design, backed by energy expertise.

Systems that fit cleanly, stay out of the spotlight and let the architecture lead — with the analysis to show they perform.

M

Mechanical design

HVAC systems sized to the building and its energy goals, coordinated with the full design team to avoid clashes and protect design intent.

E

Electrical design

Power, lighting and controls planned around real operations — ready for today and flexible for what's next.

P

Plumbing design

Durable, efficient systems coordinated early with fixtures, equipment and layout for a smooth occupant experience.

Energy + performance

Energy modeling

Monthly operating-cost insight that turns design decisions into quantified trade-offs.

ASHRAE Level I–III audits

Prioritize upgrades by energy impact and a clear path to return on investment.

Electrification + decarbonization

Feasibility guidance on heat pumps, thermal storage and low-carbon building systems.

Commissioning

Verification that lighting, HVAC and water-heating equipment operate as designed.

02 — How we help

Every stage of a building's life.

Existing buildings

Comfort complaints, equipment replacements, reliability and capital planning — starting with how the building is actually used, and ending with a clear, buildable plan.

New construction

Coordinated MEP design from day one — mechanical rooms, shafts, ceiling zones and routes accounted for early, with performance modeling when targets matter.

Energize Denver + BPS compliance

A practical compliance pathway, reporting support and a phased upgrade strategy for Energize Denver and the Colorado Building Performance Program — aligned to your budget and timeline.

We design MEP systems with the long view — because buildings don't just get built, they operate for decades.

Integrated

We see the whole system, from efficient design through commissioning, so performance holds across the project lifecycle.

Collaborative

A principal-led team that works closely with owners, architects and partners — strong teams deliver strong results.

Results-driven

Success measured in comfortable occupants, lower operating costs and a positive impact on communities.

03 — Team

Built on trust. Driven by great people.
