E. V. Haughwout BuildingSolar Shading and Glare Control
We conducted a solar shading and glare control simulation for the E. V. Haughwout Building using energy simulation software. The goal was to reduce solar heat gain and lower cooling demand while preserving the building's historic cast-iron facade. By implementing dynamic shading systems, Low-E glazing, and a potential roof retrofit, the building can improve energy efficiency, reduce GHG emissions, and enhance compliance with Local Law 97. -
The CenturyThermal Bridging and Hygrothermal Performance
At 25 Central Park West, we conducted a thermal bridging and hygrothermal performance simulation to address heat loss through key areas like windows and slab edges. By highlighting thermal breaks, insulation upgrades, and window retrofits, we improved energy performance and reduced GHG emissions, all while preserving the building’s iconic Art Deco design. -
250 Park AvenueDaylighting and Energy Optimization We conducted a daylighting and energy optimization simulation at 250 Park Avenue usingenergy simulation software to enhance natural light penetration in office spaces. By implementing daylight-redirecting devices, Low-E glazing, and automated lighting controls, we reduced the need for artificial lighting, improved energy efficiency, and lowered GHG emissions, all while preserving the building’s prestigious historic character.
