Integrative Design Process
Beginning in predesign and continuing through early occupancy, identify and apply opportunities to achieve synergies across disciplines and building systems through the following initiatives:
-
Integrated team : Assemble and convene an interdisciplinary project team with diverse perspectives. Ensure the process is an equitable team effort through organized facilitation.
-
Design charrette : During predesign or early in design, conduct a charrette with the owner or owner’s representative and participants representing at least 4 key perspectives (e.g., architect, contractor, energy modeler, or community engagement representatives).
-
LEED goal-setting : Work as a team to define a set of specific and measurable project goals that address the LEED v5 impact areas of decarbonization, quality of life, and ecosystem conservation and restoration. Incorporate these goals into the owner’s project requirements (OPR).
