Check out Cincinnati Magazine’s article on our Cincinnati 2030 District! It provides a great overview of the formation of the district and interviews some of the early, local voices of the district. “When Ed Mazria, one of America’s most notable architects, presented data more than a decade ago showing that roughly 50 percent of a city’s greenhouse gas emissions come from buildings, not cars, buses, and trucks, well, the architectural world was turned upside down. ‘We are trained as architects to make our buildings a better place for the health and the safety of their occupants,’ notes Chad Edwards, a principal at emersion DESIGN. ‘So Ed’s presentation sent shock waves through our industry. We realized we had to fix this.’”

It's official! Cincinnati is now an established 2030 District - the 21st in the world - and we are one of the founding members! Thank you to all who have helped make this a reality over the last 14 months.

Cincinnati Art Museum's Schmidlapp Gallery won a Cincinnati Design Award for it's interior architecture! The museum's Director, Cameron Kitchin, shares his thoughts on the renovation: “This project has been in the making since 1907. The new Schmidlapp Gallery borrows from the best of our installations over time. It is a rethinking of not just the design, but the purpose of the space—why it exists in the architecture of the building and the pathway of the visitor experience.” Thank you to all who helped make this project so successful!

Cincinnati Police Department District 3 has done it again! The Net-Positive, LEED Platinum Police Station won the Outstanding Sustainability & Energy Project award at the 2018 Dayton Green Expo yesterday! It is always a pleasure working with the City Of Cincinnati Government to achieve their sustainability goals.

A local, mission driven, higher education institution - which is focused on serving the inner city population - is participating in the Ohio History Connection's (formerly the Ohio Historical Society) Open Doors project. Stop by Chatfield College's Over-the-Rhine campus from 9-11am on Saturday, September 15th to learn more about the history of the building. Chad Edwards will discuss how to repurpose a historic structure into an award winning 21st century learning environment while working alongside the Ohio Historic Preservation Office.

We unreservedly believe in our mission and make strategic decisions based on it. We are known for our client-mission focus, thoughtful design and nation leading sustainability expertise, for the same cost of typical construction. Are you an exceptional architect and integrative thinker with an aligned vision?
