Sustainability

Environmentally Conscience Architecture Through Humanizing Design. EOA believes that architects have a responsibility to encourage and use sustainable design techniques. With the intention of being good stewards of the world’s resources, we are committed to and have incorporated many initiatives into our daily routine and project specifications, all of which have no adverse impact on the quality, cost, operation or maintenance of the project.
