Green Building Design

Designing green infrastructure for lasting value.

Start with the Right Foundations

A green building is more than a structure with plants. It’s a living system, one that responds to climate, supports biodiversity, and creates spaces people want to spend time in. Without the right design, you risk wasted investment and underperforming spaces.

At Evergreen Infrastructure, we combine horticultural skill, green infrastructure expertise, environmental strategy, and practical construction knowledge to create resilient, high-performing landscapes that endure for decades
