The new Middle Earth Towers at UC Irvine has achieved @USGBC #LEEDPlatinum certification! From century-old passive techniques like natural cross ventilation to state-of-the-art technologies such as photovoltaics, every design decision contributes in multiple ways to deliver carbon reduction and the deepest green integration. Residential floors are 100% naturally ventilated with operable windows that transition in hue from greens at the lower levels to blues above. 📷: @k7scott

We’re excited to share that the @HenselPhelps | Mithun design-build team was awarded the new Verano 8 graduate student housing project at @UCIrvine. The $215 million residential community will house 1,050 students and related amenity spaces in seven buildings targeting LEED Platinum certification. Set within an existing neighborhood of low-rise residences, the design presents a new paradigm for graduate housing with a series of five higher-density residential buildings surrounding a vibrant community center that welcomes all. Verano 8’s concrete building frame maximizes durability, minimizes long-term maintenance, and enables the use of seven-story structures that preserve valuable open space for resident enjoyment. The new, taller buildings fan out on the site, defining a series of outdoor rooms and gardens. Learn more about the design: bit.ly/3eVzAeq (link also in bio) Image: Plomp
