Wellness + Sustainability
Dedicated to making a positive impact
On People and the Planet
Orcutt│Winslow’s Health + Wellness studio holds a steadfast design philosophy that buildings should go beyond doing “less harm” and strive to achieve “more good”. Our holistic design approach seeks to minimize resources, improve the environment – both indoors and outdoors, operating efficiently with flexibility to adapt to changing needs and enhance occupant health and well-being. Our ability to deeply understand a client’s needs, coupled with our holistic design approach and in-house expertise delivers projects that exceed project goals. Our commitment to sustainability is advanced through our internal research program, partnerships with research institutions, and skilled team of building performance analysts who allow us to evaluate the effectiveness of strategies, technologies, biophilia, and system options early in the design process to make informed design decisions. We know that to achieve a more sustainable, healthy, and resilient future, building systems will be required to give more back to the building.
