Current Sponsors
The U.S. Green Building Council, New York Chapter, operates, in large part, thanks to the generosity of our sponsors. Depending on the level of contribution, our sponsors are categorized as Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze or Sustaining. In addition, USGBC New York recognizes Founding Sponsors, whose three-year commitments in 2002 created a stable funding base that has enabled the Chapter to grow into the organization it is today. If your firm is not already a sponsor, we encourage you to become one today. You'll be helping USGBC New York to achieve its mission while also enhancing the visibility of your own business.

Kohn Pedersen Fox believes that design emerges from an intensive dialogue with the client, the site, and the program. The balance between these forces is the primary goal of our design process. To this end, we work simultaneously from the "inside-out" and the "outside-in" to achieve an architecture that integrates the site and the program. We firmly believe that the architectural response to and fulfillment of our client's aspirations is the true measure of the success of our work. Rather than being driven by an overriding design style, KPF is driven by an overriding design intent. We strive to create structures that are intimately connected to function and context, and that achieve a degree of craft and detail that elevates them to the highest level of both beauty and practicality. |
