The Hitchcock Center for the Environment makes it on the cover of the Fall 2019 edition of Wood Design & Building!

Structures Workshop just completed the structural design of the Hitchcock Center in Amherst, MA meeting the Living Building Challenge.   The project (DesignLab Architects) is aiming to be net zero energy, water independent, using all non-toxic materials (all locally sourced wood construction - black spruce gluelam beams, spruce decking, exterior northern cedar frames, eastern white pine, etc).  This is one of just a few LBC projects on the East Coast. This building is the 23rd certified Living Building in the world, and the 4th in Massachusetts! The International Living Future Institute completed a case study of the building which can be read here.
