| The U.S. Air Force recently honored the Army Aviation Support Facility (AASF) at Buckley Air Force Base with an Air Force Design Honor Award for its master plan, architectural design and interior design led by Coover-Clark & Associates, Inc., a Denver-based commercial architecture and design firm. The project was named "Best Sustainable Facility," recognized for outstanding use of daylighting, energy efficiency, and sustainable, environmentally-friendly design. The AASF is a training and maintenance facility for the Colorado Army National Guard‘s fleet of Chinook and Blackhawk helicopters. Coover-Clark & Associates is committed to sustainability in its designs, incorporating environmentally-friendly elements like daylighting, xeriscaping, proper building orientation, sustainable materials, and building envelope design to optimize energy use. The firm’s strategy for daylighting the AASF facility included translucent wall panels, skylights, and a "light shelf" to bounce natural light into work areas. In addition, the firm oriented the building to optimize sunlight on the airfield and for building occupants. "In the design process, we ensured that more than 95 percent of occupied spaces in the AASF would have daylight access. This will help the Air Force save more than $10,000 in energy costs per year with the added benefit of making work environments more comfortable," said Carol Coover-Clark, president and owner of Coover-Clark & Associates. To add to the AASF project’s sustainability, the firm used renewable, environmentally friendly building materials, and integrated natural xeriscaping and drought-tolerant plants, enabling the AASF to save up to 85 percent on irrigation. In addition, the facility reused over-excavated soil from the site for landscaping to enhance security and channel roof drainage to plants. |
