Earlier this week, the AIA Committee on the Environment (COTE) saluted Earth Day by publishing this year's top ten list of sustainable projects that have invested in considerable modifications to exist more harmoniously within the natural environment. You might recognize one of the selections from a 2005 Studio Bullitt on Steven Holl Architects' Whitney Water Purification Facility.
The selected projects address significant environmental challenges with designs that thoughtfully weave architecture, technology, and natural systems. This year's COTE Top Ten include a model single-family home, sustainable master plan and library, two nonprofit headquarters, a school, and a water treatment facility that doubles as a park. In addition, public education of sustainable practices was a key component of most projects.
