Architecture & Sustainable Design: Collin Egelhoff

"Sustainable architecture is mediating between idealism and pragmatism, balancing between ideals of what we would like our buildings to be and how we can create them. The ability to design buildings that are aesthetically pleasing, reflect community, and are used with environmental responsibility is the ability to create sustainable architecture."
