Focus is on the design technqiues utilized in the recently completed corporate office building of Donohue and Associates, Engineers and Architects, located in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. The new facility located at a latitude of 43/sup 0/ north, will provide 25,000 additional square feet on two floors, while providing a regional showcase for energy-efficient commercial buildings design that emphasizes a quality environment predicated on the integration of daylighting and indirect lighting systems as well as the coordination of passive solar techniques with auxiliary mechanical systems. The utilization of a design-build approach coupled with a design-team approach required close cooperation between the architect, engineer, energy consultant, and owner, as well as the general contractor and subcontractors, in order to provide a quality office environment in which to work.
