'News From Sebastian Eilert Architecture, Inc'


Every month I look forward to reading Sebastian Eilert's newletter to keep up to date on his latest LEED projects in South Florida. Sebastian, a local architect with international training and experience, is dedicated to sustainable architecture. From his website:

With S.E.A. as part of your project team, spaces will be better, healthier and have economic saving, in energy, water, and resources, which also reduce the burden on this planet. S.E.A. helps to set yourself apart as a leader in your community and to know that you are doing the right thing!
And this month from his newsletter:

Eurohabitat "Living Tetris" project has gone through some changes since its
first submittal for permit and is ready to move forward. The now smaller house
still features cutting edge design including a unique custom pool and native as
well as regionally appropriate landscaping designed by Southern Blossoms. Some
of the more hidden features include a manifold plumbing system, high efficient
water fixtures and appliances and LED lighting. The house is PV ready. The team
and the Village are excited to see the first LEED certified home for the Village
of Pinecrest start construction soon...

Nearing construction completion is the Glantz remodel at The Balmoral in Bal Harbour. The renovation of a spectacular corner unit added a bedroom and updated the kitchen and master suite. Lookout for a picture of the month from this amazing project in a future newsletter.

The GSA Trades Shop Facility, the first LEED Silver certified project for Miami Dade County. We are eagerly awaiting comments from the USGBC.

Design on the Pinecrest Gardens lower Bathroom project has been completed and SEA has moved to the construction document phase detailing the structure and the water filter system that will be installed instead of traditional sewer system. SEA is proud to team up with New Orleans based FuturProof.

The LEED H M+M LEED Homes residence by Upstairs Studio in Coconut Grove has been awarded the AIA award and is already a Energy Star home. The LEED certification is eagerly awaited by the team.
