Sustainable Design

Discover how Birdair supports the growing popularity of sustainable design in today’s custom architectural building industry.

By maximizing tensile architecture’s inherent daylighting capabilities, increased insulative value and reduced material usage, Birdair (a member of the USGBC) offers architects and building owners a progressive, environmentally responsible option to traditional architecture systems.

Birdair’s open, airy designs offer an abundance of natural light for interiors. By using fabric membrane, which is highly translucent, this material lends itself to greater “harvesting qualities” that result in decreased demand for costly electric lights. Working in an office? Or a school? Studies have shown that increases in natural light levels and productivity go hand in hand. Imagine the possibilities a Birdair structure can bring.

Through its products and technology, Birdair designs can also contribute towards LEED credits and green building certification. From TiO₂ fabric membrane’s self-cleaning properties to the minimal waste of steel cable assembly, Birdair creates tensile structures that work with the environment, not against it.
