Austin, Texas (19 June 2009) Four Points Centre, a 333-acre, mixed-use project in Austin, has achieved Gold LEED certification. The complex includes research and development, office, retail, restaurant, residential, and hotel components organized around a 181-acre nature habitat.

The design of this two-building, multi-tenant office project capitalizes on and preserves the beauty of the hill country site it inhabits by creating an architectural vocabulary that melds natural materials and timeless forms with modern design and sophisticated sustainable strategies.  The native limestone, metal and glass clad buildings were sensitively inserted into the undulating topography with minimum disturbance to natural features. The two 100,000-square-foot, three-story buildings and their shared 240,000-square-foot parking garage are the first phase of the mixed use development.

The LEED Gold rating was achieved with a range of sustainable methods including sophisticated mechanical systems, ultra low water consumption, reduced lighting density, preserved natural area, solar orientation and shading devices, and extensive use of latest generation low-e glass to achieve maximum day lighting.
