Happy Holidays and a Splendid New Years
Warm up by the fire, get cozy and take in GGLO's 2014 in review
2014 was a year of many 'firsts' for GGLO. Alicia Daniels Uhlig become GGLO's first LEED Fellow, hot on the heels of GGLO winning "Best Residential Firm - Large" in USGBC's Best of Building Awards. GGLO's first ever community center, the Bay Terrace Community & Education Center was certified LEED® Gold earlier this year.
In the office or on the streets of Seattle, GGLOers gathered together to stay active in 2014. Our Landscape Team led the GGLO PARK(ing) DAY installation, turning a parking spot outside of the Seattle Art Museum into a place where the public could interact and relax. Our passion for getting together and staying active is also reflected in the way we design our projects; Greenbridge was a winner in The Center for Active Design's first-ever Excellence in Active Design Awards.
GGLO welcomed 19 talented individuals to our ranks this year. We would also like to congratulate the 20 newly LEED accredited GGLO professionals that have shown much dedication in growing their own
sustainable and technical knowledge in 2014. We're looking for more great people to join our team.
GGLO has a long history of supporting non-profit groups that share the firm's core values of community and environmental stewardship. Here you can find a list of local and regional non-profit groups to consider for your corporate and personal giving this holiday season.
As many of you know, in 2014 we say farewell to both Founding Principal Bill
Gaylord and Principal Carol
Schaefer. Building on more than 30 years spent designing places that
transform the communities we live in, Bill is pursuing his expansive interest
in art, culture and celebration of community through his own company, BONFIRE.
Carol, whose 27-year tenure at GGLO has shaped our robust Interior Design
practice and our multidisciplinary design firm as a whole, plans to build a
house and spend quality time on the Olympic Peninsula.
