Sustainability and Green Architecture
VITETTA has been a strong advocate in the practice of responsible architecture and engineering. Our firm is a member of the US Green Building Council and has always embraced the principles of green design especially in our schools, libraries and preservation projects where the marketplace for sustainable features has always existed. We are strongly committed to a practice of architecture and engineering that supports sustainability and living lighter on the earth. Some of the programs we have implemented in our projects include:
- LEED Certified Projects
- Sustainable Sites Initiative
- Certification Programs for Interior Design & Building Finishes
- On-site Renewable Energy Systems
- Commissioning of Building Systems and Elements
Over the last five years, a sampling of the work VITETTA’s LEED projects includes:
- Mercer County Criminal Courthouse — projected as Silver Certification
- Camden County College — projected as Silver Certification
- Pennsylvania Convention Center ANNEX — Gold Certification
- Asia Trails II, Elephant Trails — Gold Certification
- Duke Farms — The Farm Barn and Orchid Range Buildings are projected as Platinum Certification

We continue to search for ways to make our buildings better and more responsive to our clients needs. The practice of Green Architecture and Engineering is part of our foundation of that effort.
