Our Mission
To provide holistic design services that consider efficient resource use, sustainability, compassionate community integration, and careful material selection. To use natural wisdom whenever possible, and to always consider the impact on the environment. To help make spaces that nourish, and connect us to our community instead of disconnect us into sterility.
ICR Engineering provides consulting for the built environment and all of the elements in and around the building project.
As a licensed engineer in the state of Oregon, I provide engineering level data analysis and calculations for systems, envelope optimization, and energy efficiency throughout the building project. As a specialist in energy modeling, I bring over 10 years of experience for detailed simulation analysis that can save your project thousands through optimization and operational cost reduction before single shovel hits the dirt.
As a Well AP, Living Building Challenge AP, and LEED Green Associate, I have a deep knowledge and passion for all the sustainability elements of a project. Whether you prioritize a healthy indoor environment through sustainable materials, or water conservation and waste reduction through graywater systems and composting toilets, I can guide you through systems and support you through design. My experience with Biophilia allows me support the integration of natural elements with data backed science, and my foundation in permaculture allows me to think holistically at whole systems integration with people at the center of design.
First we will save money and optimize the design using real granular data to show you exactly how your design will perform. Then we will hone and craft your vision to make your project not only a flagship for the community, but a nurturing space for the occupants.
I can provide individual services tailored to a specific need or we look more holistically at your project to guide the overall design, and consider all the factors that affect construction, operation, and occupation and use within the project.

Our Approach
Engage with me as early as possible in design to maximize opportunities and fully leverage the power of the tools.
Establish early goals to drive the project to success through complications and budget constraints.
Use energy modeling up front to find first cost saving sand operational savings.
Use real data to show impact and value, hit efficiency targets, and weigh design choices with real payback and comfort models.
Layer holistic elements, materials for durability and health, air quality for optimal occupant experience, natural elements and resource optimization
