Welcome to the latest GGLO news.

We're sure you've already heard that The Bertschi School Living Science Wing has achieved full Living Building Challenge certification by the International Living Future Institute. Now you have a chance to see it during Living Future!

Mark Sindell, GGLO Principal and member of the Restorative Design Collective (RDC) will be leading a portion of the Bertschi School Living Building Tour. Mark led the Landscape Architecture design for the Science Wing, which will be open to attendees as part of the 2013 Living Future unConference on May 15th. This is a fantastic opportunity to visit and learn from core members of the design team in-person.
