Mission & History

Our Mission

We create enduring and delightful work that integrates natural systems, builds community and inspires change for ourselves and future generations.

Our History

Founded in Baltimore in 2002, TerraLogos: eco architecture was a pioneer in providing green architecture and sustainable design solutions to the mid-Atlantic region.  Since that time we have dedicated our work to green projects only.  We have always known that sustainability is the most practical, cost efficient and responsible approach to design.   We also find it the most inspiring and beautiful work!  Earlier projects such as the design of the Langston Brown Alternative High School in Arlington, Virginia, and our sustainable consulting for the DuPont Headquarters and Flooring Systems Group in Wilmington, Delaware achieved green standards before LEED was a viable program.  It was not always easy to find clients interested in green design, but the sustained performance of our work has been persuasive.

Eight years later, we are thrilled — but not surprised — that “green” is now a recognized standard in the industry.  Today we provide green design and consulting services for office buildings, prisons and fire houses, as the performance possibilities of sustainable design have expanded.  Evergreen Elementary School has incorporated its green design elements into the teaching curriculum.  We recently partnered with Baltimore City to write the progressive Green Building Standards that will bring responsible, healthy development to the City.
