Nevada County Business News Article

Siteline was recently featured in an article in Nevada County Business News

Excerpt:
"The profession of architecture encompasses both art and science: while architects strive to design beautiful and usable spaces for people to live and work in, the process also involves down-to-earth considerations of construction, materials, cost, and environmental impact.

Richard Baker, a designer with many years experience in construction, and Andrew Pawlowski, a licensed architect, are uniquely qualified to tackle both aspects of the profession through their company, Siteline Architecture."

Project visit

Andrew will be taking his boy scout troup to see the Northern Queen Hotel project that we designed and is currently under construction.  As part of their Architecture merit badge they are expected to tour a "job site".  Siteline Architecture redesigned the existing hotel to create active senior housing apartments as well as a dining room and a living room.  We created a variety of studio apartments, and one bed apartments that will soon be home for a group of 50+ year old residents.  The Northern Queen will continue to provide hotel accomodations as well as the restaurant.

LEED AP Certification

 Wed, 13 May 09 11:36:47 -0700

Andrew recently completed his United States Green Building Council LEED AP Certification.

This makes him one of just a few LEED Certified professionals in our area.

“I have always felt strongly about the principles that the USGBC now promotes, and I was increasingly fatigued with what being passed off as ‘green/sustainable certification’ by various organizations” Pawlowski says. He added “The LEED process is unique in that it is not tied to particular products or trades, but certifies “green” using independent standards in a way that approaches the building as an integrated whole, not just a building that happens to have a couple of sustainable products in it.”

Finally, Pawlowski notes, “The greatest satisfaction in the effort to prepare for the exam was learning how easy some of the goals are to achieve, how something so simple as the building’s orientation and allowing for day-lighting can change the cost of operating the building over time, and how increased ventilation and indoor air quality have not only physical health implications, but have resulted in measurable results in occupant well-being and employee productivity.  Also, even if an owner doesn’t elect to pursue the USGBC certification, I have expanded knowledge to incorporate selected principals in a way that suits the project, its site, and its users without significant added cost.”


Congratulations Andrew!
