The guiding Methodologies at Fox Architecture are: Sustainable Design Architecture; Land Stewardship; Community and Beauty. We use Sustainable Practices for the design of built forms. Alternative energy sources are encouraged, and passive pre-heating / cooling / ventilation strategies are used to downsize necessary mechanical equipment.
Large windows and tall spaces bring daylight deep into the buildings and reduce the need for artificial lighting, and allows for convective air flow to dramatically increase occupant comfort and reduce mechanical system needs. Combined with a palette of natural materials and simple logical constructability, we create non-toxic spaces that are bright, comfortable and have great indoor air quality.
This connects directly to our Low-Impact Design strategies to provide low-tech and simple solutions like raingardens and pervious paving for on-site storm-water management. Other techniques include native plantings for pollinators, erosion and sediment control for waterways, tree and grasses protection during construction, and climate-oriented landscaping to offset seasonal heating or cooling needs.
