Child & Family Community Center - Middletown, RI

Home & Hospice Care of Rhode Island headquarters - Providence, RI

From more than 2,500 nominated projects, two of Vision 3 Architects' projects have earned the Green Building of America Award - the new Child & Family Community Center in Middletown, and the Home & Hospice Care of Rhode Island headquarters in Providence. The awards are presented to the region's most important, innovative, and sustainable facilities.
The new 39,000 s/f Child & Family Community Center is designed to reduce overall energy consumption by 30% and is the first project in R.I. to utilize National Grid's "Advanced Building Systems" program.

Home & Hospice Care of Rhode Island is the state's largest provider of hospice services. They are committed to environmental sustainability. The renovation and adaptive reuse of an existing, 50,000 s/f building as their administrative headquarters includes a 24-bed hospice facility and is expected to be the first health care facility in R.I. to achieve LEED certification.
"Our commitment to be responsible designers has environmental sustainability as its foundation," says William Gray, principal and co-founder of Vision 3 Architects. "We are honored to be recognized for this award, and are proud of our staff and clients for their unwavering commitment to the environment."
