LEED Design Services
Dekker/Perich/Sabatini has extensive experience in the design of LEED buildings and is committed to incorporating
appropriate sustainable strategies into our projects. Although sustainable design has recently become a popular national
trend, our firm has embraced this concept for many years as responsible design professionals. We have realized energy
efficient projects for our unique climate by using common sense approaches to building siting, solar orientation, appropriate
fenestration, building mass, appropriate mechanical systems, and the use of building materials readily available in our region.
Dekker/Perich/Sabatini has become increasingly involved in LEED-based projects in the past few years. We have been a
member of the U.S. Green Building Council, the organization that created LEED, since 2001. We have designed many projects
that have achieved or are pursuing LEED certification, and several other projects that were designed to LEED standards did
not pursue formal certification. These include educational, commercial, residential, and institutional projects designed using
the LEED-NC, LEED-CS, and LEED-CI rating systems.
In addition, Dekker/Perich/Sabatini has more LEED Accredited Professionals on staff than any other firm in New Mexico.
We currently have 21 LEED Accredited Professionals. Through our internal training program, we have trained over 100 staff
Rio Rancho Public Schools members in both the fundamentals of LEED and our own method for successfully managing LEED projects.
