Harold R. Sachs II, AIA, LEED AP

Principal

Keenly aware of what today's trends in the market, Hal Sachs focuses on making each project reflect the standards and values of its market, its users and its surroundings. His attention to detail enables his team to make subtle changes during the design process to create a more efficient working environment for the user. His standard of excellence is the benchmark for his Design Team to achieve. That is probably why several projects that Hal has been involved with have been published, including The Highlands at Pittsford, a project that recently won the AIA Long Term Care Design Citation Award and has been widely published. Recently, Hal was involved with concept designs for the renovation of the third floor dining room and nurses' station in the Arbor at Baywoods of Annapolis. He is very excited about the opportunity to revisit this area as a part of the new project described in this RFP.

Hal is currently working on two projects involved with the Leadership of Energy and Environmental Design (LEED). One of those projects is Middleburg Bank - Ft. Evans Plaza II which has been recently completed and has received LEED-Silver Certification. This project has already received several awards and recognition for its environmental and energy efficient design.

During his architectural career Hal has also had an opportunity to work on numerous other types of projects including Banking, Commercial and Government Offices, Public and Private Schools and Custom Homes. This diverse design experience has enriched his Design Team's knowledge and contributed to each project's success.
