Bertschi Science Wing certified as a Living Building

Congratulations to the Bertschi School Science Wing for achieving the final certification as a Living Building by the Living Future Institute. Although construction was completed in November 2011, the certification process requires actual operational performance measurements, and full certification was received this month.

The Science Wing is the first certified Living Building on the west coast, and the first to be certified under the version 2.0 criteria.
