One of the most important ways architects can ensure the longevity and sustainability of a building project is through sourcing quality materials. Choosing building-products for any design, big or small, can be a daunting and time-consuming task. But selecting products to protect or even benefit the health of a building’s occupants is a different challenge altogether \u2014 one that Architizer<\/a> can help overcome, as one New York-based architecture firm recently discovered.<\/p>\n

LTL Architects<\/a>\u00a0is currently working on a new children\u2019s education center in Northwest Arkansas where the team is tackling the difficult question of how to specify entirely non-toxic building-products. The architects have worked tirelessly to source materials that help create a beautiful, long-lasting building that simultaneously keeps kids healthy. For a 45,000-square-foot facility in which extremely young, developing children will spend most of their waking hours, this is a huge responsibility.<\/p>\n
